M snatched it up on my recommendation. The fact that I could barely talk after reading it, apart from saying "wow" in a shaky voice, probably influenced that decision.
My daughter keeps sneaking off with it and has now passed me. She kept letting out squeals and screeches from her bedroom this evening at things I haven't read yet. (Arrrr...)
Ack! Poor you! Did you get to the part where . . . (never mind, but when you get there, or past it, you'll have to stop back and let me know if it destroyed you the way it did me).
I should note that I don't usually deal well with things that are tense, nor do I typically go for "dark" novels. Collins somehow manages to convey all the brutality and desperation that you'd expect based on what you know aobut the plot without completely dragging things down - one of the things that makes the book so impressive, in my opinion.
