Katniss Everdeen CALL ME. WHY HE SURVIVED? SHOULD BE DEAD.
~. ~
To write this review I had to let some time pass. Needed to clarify doubts, relive some feelings, experience some new thrills. Clear. Clean. Needed to divide what this book had on me and see what was most significant, see what was most important. The result of that search was sadness. I was sad. Sorry. Distressed. Helpless and useless , because from my place as a reader, there was no way to help Katniss, Peeta and / or Gale. I had the opportunity to enter the book and give some punching and kicking, shaking or other by idiots. Contrary to Sinsajo, my wings were not deployed, the feeling attached to my body, tied with a rope invisible ( by Mrs. Collins) and unable to take flight and feel free.

My Language Arts teacher always tells us that we as readers we always do a deal before you start reading a novel. You know if it's fiction or not, and will accept the events that happen in it as such. The trilogy of the Hunger Games, is not how any other juvenile book full of love, friends, parties, boyfriends, etc. This trilogy touches important issues, is deeper. Besides the social and political circumstances surrounding the events that happen, the synopsis gives us cause to know or guess what awaits us, and it is obviously not the typical "happily ever" with a simple knot where all difficulties are resolved as if by magic.
Therefore, after completing In Flames (got to the bathroom and find some food), I started reading Sinsajo and knew that what awaited me was not going to be all rosy, but never thought it would be so sad. It was very intense. Too, if you will. The sad (and worry and fear what could happen) I felt when reading about hate and atrocities taking place in Panem, districts and on Capitol Hill were very sharp. Reading about the misfortunes of others, even though they are fictional persons, is horrible and something morbid.
And so the novel has to be bad, contrary, Sinsajo is incredible. Is excellent. Perfect. Trying to convey a feeling through words is not easy and you get very few, very few books led me strength that I felt with it. It was so interesting, entertaining and engaging he was glued to the pages while I was broken inside, crying, hurting and crying for the characters.
The final (GMOs) ended in collapse. Throughout the novel, things happen that you are breaking down little by little, there deaths that broke my heart and things we never had to mourn esperado.Después therefore not think I could have more tears. The final in reading it flew past me. The excitement to be finishing the book, knowing that would happen I played various tricks. Sometimes I read so fast that I spent a lot of things and had to read it again, or read but not understand anything because my mind had been in the previous paragraph XD.
When finished, my wings, bound by the pen of Mrs. Collins, but felt free and were broken by the pressure exerted on the cord had them, they could move and lifting flight. However, despite feeling free, the pain always accompanies me to move, there is always reminding me of what had happened, what I had experienced at the hands of the Capitol, the Hunger Games and President Snow.
+ Cons: have read many comments (after finishing the book for no spoiler myself XD) and I was thinking. I will not spoiler to anyone and want to make clear that this is my opinion .

Many of the comments I've read say that there are things that Suzanne Collins should not have done. For example, Odair Finnick is a character that appears on In Flames and has a very particular life history. Finnick is a former player and winner of The Hunger Games and ends interacting with Katniss and Peeta for "something that happens." Finnick is considered by the Capitol prettiest player of all. Go shirtless, eyes, body and hair are irresistible. THERE AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS . The comments I read, said it was not necessary for you to pass it, which is a fill to the story. That and what happens then Finnick. This explanation is something horrible. It's creepy. But as I said above, as readers do a deal before reading a book, and for me it was something you could expect from a cruel government, corrupt and tyrannical. I mean, what do you expect? If I'm going to start reading a novel or story belonging to the genre post-war on the Nazis, I will not wait until you see the angel savior of all men move the nose and all to be saved .
There are deaths of characters, well, you arrive. They are characters with whom one is very attached. Those who have forsaken me were two very puzzled. These are things that one does not expect that the majority did not like. Why I had to kill her or? I also wanted them to die, let alone how they do it, but hey, the Capitol and those who want power do not care about anything, let alone the death of two or three so to meet its target. I agree that the story would have been a little less sad and painful and would have avoided some facts, but I think if any avoided, I would not have affected the same way and would have liked less.
I think that when one wants to give a message, important or not, has to grab the attention of others, has to amaze and / or raise questions, so that later! BAM! give the blow by making the message to be recorded and unforgettable, and that is what I believe Ms. Collins wanted to do. I'll rate this book accordingly. Although there are things that I liked, that made me feel strange, sad, unhappy, hopeless and useless, the novel follows its own rules. In my opinion, there are many people who did not like about it, because it is a story very crude, sad, cruel. But I think if one takes into account the above, the novel will be read from a different point of view, and you may like it more if you know what to expect.
Score: 5 / 5 ~ Perfect . One of the best books I read in my life.
