#I understand katnss a little bit too well

I've been rereading the Hung.er Games (halfway through book 2), and it amazes me how even though it's been over a decade since I last read it, I still remember every detail. The power of a special interest should not be underestimated.
They're books I genuinely can't put down. I read the first one in like 3 days. I remember doing that the first time I read them too. Just glued to the pages. I loved the movies when they came out too. I watched the first one last night with my husband, who also just finished reading the first book too (his first time!), and it was so much fun. I can't wait to do it with the others.
I'm still so fond of all the characters. It makes me feel even more invested in all the tension, drama, and their fates. And seeing it through the eyes of an adult really adds to that. I'm noticing themes and details that, while I may have been aware of them at the time, the full depth of were lost on me until now.
#I used to f/o Finnick from the books specifically when I was 16#I was so smitten with him#and lowkey still am#I'm 100% sure that when I come across him in the books again my feelings will not have changed#I am a deeply deeply political person#so I absolutely adore the full scope of the plot#the pebbles of revolution. the depesperate attempts at oppression. the growing understanding of the protagnist as she realizes her#significance and influence. the realistic way that affects her.#I love how well it narrates ptsd too right from the first page#I understand katnss a little bit too well#once Im done w this Im gonna read the queens gmbit#cant wait#Im going through one of my voraciously read everything in sight phases#sunny speaks
