This was one of my very rare rereads. The first time I read it when the movie first came out because our class wanted to see the movie in cinema and I like to read a book before I watch the movie. Now I'm reading it is because tiktok made me want to read them again. When I first read the book years ago I thought this book would be stupid but I loved it sooo much and it's still amazing. 
When I first read the book the main draw of the book was the Lovestory between Katniss and Peeta and I still love this part of the book (I a sucker for almost all lovestorys) but now reading it again, the main focus of the book shifted for me, now it was the political situations. And the parallels to politics and happenings around the world to day. It's quite shocking. 

I think Suzanne Collins is an amazing writer and I know that I will buy the new book of her "the ballad of songbirds and snakes" I know it's supposed to get a movie in the near futur and I want to read it before the movie comes out.
