I am so emotional right now! This book has ruined me just as much the second time around. In fact, I think it hurt even more this time. I feel like I garnered a greater understanding for Katniss' motives and her final all-consuming sadness. I also understood the ending a lot better, and her decisions for the life she chose felt more real than the ending my younger self had anticipated during my first read of this. 
 This series will forever remain close to my heart and is undoubtedly one of the greatest examples of an amalgamation between satire, sci fi and fantasy demonstrated within the confines of the YA genre. 
 Live forever, the girl who is on fire.
