We did it, y'all! We made it to the end(?) of our Hunger Games deep dive with SUNRISE ON THE REAPING by Suzanne Collins (until the movie release, of course) and the gang is all here! How does one even summarize this book/episode? It was so much more traumatic than I think any of us were expecting, but what a journey. We talk major lore, complex character arcs, trauma, recontextualizing the Hunger Games universe, unending despair, potential movie adaptation choices, more trauma, how President Snow can catch these hands, and yet more despair! Whew. Honestly, we're still not over it.
REMINDER: Obvious spoilers for the entire Hunger Games universe, including speculation about the forthcoming movie adaptation of SUNRISE ON THE REAPING. If you haven't read this series yet -- babe, what are you even doing here??
Don't forget to rate and review us on iTunes, and if you have any suggestions for future episodes/books to cover, please don't hesitate to reach out to us via email or DM or carrier pigeon or raven or whatever method you prefer. We love to hear from you, and honestly we have no idea what we want to do next, so we'd love to know what YOU want to hear us talk about!
As always, an enormous thanks to DJempirical for our fabulous theme music.
