I am very open about my… dislike of Mockingjay, the last book in the Hunger Games trilogy. However, I am so entranced by the world of Panem that I would read a book about each of the first 73 Hunger Games. That’s why when Suzanne Collins announced that she would be releasing a prequel to the series, I knew I had to give it another shot.

This memoir is written by David Sheff, a journalist who’s son, his beautiful boy, becomes addicted to Meth. This rollercoaster read is not for the faint of heart, and I finished it last night so I am finally out of its clutches.
