    Rant

    I just saw a Goodreads review say that this book was too political and far too unrealistic and everyone was flat as cardboard. Tell me you didn't get the point without telling me you didn't get the point. That made me RAGE because you would've GOTTEN it if you'd had basic reading comprehension!

    Look, I get it if you didn't like the writing style, it's not a one size fits all, but you didn't like the book for ENTIRELY WRONG REASONS! A book being too political is the dumbest excuse for disliking a book that I've ever heard. And if you say it's "unrealistic"—look at our world now. Palestine, Congo, Syria, AND more. They don't have to be games like THG, but clearly, hundreds of thousands of children and innocents are dying. If you cannot see that, then society is doomed.
