Everyone is saying the same thing about the new Hunger Games book

Sunrise on the Reaping is the best book I've read in years

I've never loved a book series as much as The Hunger Games, so the publication of Sunrise on the Reaping felt like Christmas for me.

There is always that one book that changes your life. Whether you're 15 or 50, there's bound to be a novel that just makes you fall in love with reading.

I fell out of love with reading as a teenager, but that changed when I picked up The Hunger Games.

I was completely enthralled by the world Suzanne Collins created. The stories were devastating, shocking, moving, and heartbreaking, but captivating.

The world she created stuck with me, and it quickly became my favourite book series of all time.

Hearing that Suzanne Collins had written another novel, this time based on Haymitch Abernathy, was a dream come true for me.

My hopes were high for Sunrise on the Reaping, but it's safe to say I wasn't left disappointed.

I was completely engrossed in this book from the very first page and couldn't stop thinking about it long after the epilogue.

Learning more about Haymitch, his Games, and his life before we meet him as Katniss and Peeta’s mentor was overwhelming and emotional, and just devastating.

I’ve never been so immersed in a book as an adult. I gasped, I cried and I won’t stop thinking about it for some time.

Everyone has been saying it is the best book in the series with many longterm fans declaring it as their favourite Suzanne Collins book, myself included.

A book like this is rare, but how lucky are we that we get to read another Suzanne Collins novel 17 years after The Hunger Games was published.

Sunrise on the Reaping synopsis:

When you've been set up to lose everything you love, what is there left to fight for? As the day dawns on the fiftieth annual Hunger Games, fear grips the districts of Panem.

This year, in honour of the Quarter Quell, twice as many tributes will be taken from their homes. Back in District 12, Haymitch Abernathy is trying not to think too hard about his chances. All he cares about is making it through the day and being with the girl he loves.

When Haymitch's name is called, he can feel all his dreams break. He's torn from his family and his love, shuttled to the Capitol with the three other District 12 tributes.

As the Games begin, Haymitch understands he's been set up to fail. But there's something in him that wants to fight . . . and have that fight reverberate far beyond the deadly arena.
