You're such an amazing writer and I cried so much. At times it was weird because I kept on seeing Lenny Kravitz in my head the entire time. So thinking of Jena Malone and him as siblings was odd because they look nothing alike.

Wait wait wait. Why was Cinna being reaped until he aged out or died? Is there a reason?

I think that if you reap someone, and they win the games, they can't be reaped again. So basically, Cinna can only be reaped for one year. That is my understanding of the book

I've read this series both here and on ao3, and regardless of how many times I've read them, they still remain amazingly great. I especially loved Cinna from districts 5 and 7, they were so heartbreakingly wonderful.

Thank you for not making me lose hope in fanfic. Authors like you have made fanfiction worth while!

I'm amazed by your writing style. These stories are really good. The depth of the characters and the way you can relate to them, and as much as possible sticking to cannon, made it impossible to stop reading. You should be proud. Congratulations, beautiful work. I will follow you from now on.

I really love the whole series. But this final one is almost achingly beautiful towards the end, especially that final moment with Johanna. Lovely.

This makes me so, so, so sad. I remember when I read this story before I didn't like this one as much just because I thought Cinna should have been with Finnick and not Magdalen. Now rereading it for the first time, I kept hoping that she wouldn't get wreaped even though I knew she would because I knew she shouldn't and I knew I didn't want her to die. I loved her just because Cinna did. Because I wanted their baby to survive. Because I wanted her to come back. Because I wanted Cinna to finally be happy. Oh, these feels hurt me so.

A tiny part of me wishes that Cinna could have been wreaped as selfish as this is because I wanted to see him fight with the motivation of returning to his wife and unborn child. To see his moral dilemmas because he's Cinna for god's sake and he'd make a beautiful victor. WHY DID MAGDALEN HAVE TO BE WREAPED GOD!

Oh god. I reached the scene where she dies. I feel tears at the edge of my vision threatening to form and I spent a good minute or so breathing into the back of my palm, hoping so much this isn't how it ends. She was so brave and strong and she could have survived. SHE COULD HAVE FUCKING SURVIVED. I'm going through emotional shock. I usually don't like OCs but this time around I genuinely liked Magdalen. I don't know how I didn't before - maybe I did but I don't remember. All I know is I didn't cry but the last time I cried for a fanfiction was your chapter three when Greggory died. That tore me to SHREDS because he should have survived. I was so, so happy he survived. GODDAMIT WHY DOES NO ONE ACTUALLY SURVIVE THE HUNGER GAMES. Great now I'm back to being pissed at Panem again.

I know I'm being a broken record but you are amazing. The feelings you're making me have for these characters and scenes... it's very rare for me to witness. I wish I could write as well as you do. I truly do. I love your work but I sure wish some of them would have happy endings. I can just feel my heart breaking for Cinna and Finnick and the others as I read these stories. I'm definitely going to read more of your work though. I'm surprised I didn't before to be honest. I hope some of them will have happy endings.

I feel like I'm understanding more as I read. It's such a weird thing because I almost never read analytically for books and especially fanfictions in particular but I feel like this story is a book. One of the things I came to realize is that I actually pity Cinna more in this chapter than the last one. Though Cinna technically has more of a right and "owns" Finnick more than he did before, in chapter one Cinna knew that Finnick was imagining someone else. He bore through it but he knew not to hope because he knew he would never be what Finnick wanted. In this one, Cinna is strung along like a little Capitol marionette.

Just like how Finnick managed to fool countless women in the capitol that he was talked about them in the poem, Cinna is just one of many to Finnick while Finnick is the only one for Cinna. If I can remember correctly, I believe that this is my least favorite chapter because I empathize with Cinna and I can't help but pity the boy. I mean Finnick can't even say his name when he takes his virginity! And yet I still have to pity Finnick because it's a defense mechanism for all that he has to do and what he is forced into by Snow. God, why do I have to empathize with everyone!

It breaks my heart a little bit when Cinna tells his mom Finnick loves him back because we know that Finnick doesn't and she knows that Finnick doesn't but Cinna is in his own little sheltered world. And when his mother asks if he wants Finnick moved... it's so clear that that's what happened to her. Oh god. I'm gonna go slump into an emo corner now (this is what happens when I decide to live review while reading the story).

Oh, an I've reached the part where Finnick tells the truth. Sometimes you really have to pity Cinna. I mean he is so innocent and idealistic. And his mother? His foundation of all things? Really Finnick? Really? Wow, I guess this is a sign of a really good writer when I'm reacting to the characters like they're in a published book and set into stone. To be able to delve into all the complexities of a character... you're amazing. I just have to get that out.

I have to say I love Deere and Zephur and that poem. Not the part Persephone wrote but the rest that they recited. It's really pretty in my opinion. I looked it up and I can say I'll be saving the tyger for a while. I don't think this chapter's going to turn out to be my least favorite. I feel like I'm reading way more into it than I did so many years ago maybe because I'm older or maybe because you just spot things better the second time around. All I have to say is if this is how I react to one of my less favorite chapters... you sure are impressive. I hope you don't think I'm just sugar coating things, I really do like your writing a lot.

As for the ending, aw. Cinna's all grown up now.

I forgot how well written your story is. Just reading the first one (I usually come back and reread my favorite two which is two or three and five. It has been a while) again for the first time made me realize how spectacular it is. This isn't even my favorite one and yet it made me feel understanding for Finnick, pity for Cinna, and an appreciation for Annie. You convey such emotion through the smallest gestures and actions that I can't help but love your writing style. I felt like an English teacher when I picked up the symbolism of Finnick feeding bread to birds while others lived in poverty. I just adore you, I really mean it. Thank you for giving us this amazing story.

This hurt to read. And the last chapter… my god, beautifully done and more perfect than I could ever have imagined.
Guest chapter 4 . 1/26/2014
Oh my gosh. This is a work of genius. I love the way this story seamlessly flows with the books. It would explain why Cinna has no surgical alterations why he speaks softly, and why he throws himself into his work. And I love the way you set it up so that when Peeta and Cinna finally reunite like we know they will, Peeta will act as though they've never met, just like the books. Petition to make this canon.

This was beautiful. You just captured it so well.

Wow! You have a talent for ripping my heart out (in a good way). Thank you for the amazing stories!
