Sunrise on the Reaping Part 1: It's Called Live Reptile Fashion, Look It Up

Jacob starts our violent YA fantasy hour by telling us all about R. F. Kuang’s THE POPPY WAR and William shares his love for other Asian-inspired fantasy series. After a quick touch base about the *other* prequel (and it’s many, many songs), we go right back into Panem, District 12, and the Capitol all over again in the highly anticipated new book in the HUNGER GAMES franchise — SUNSET ON THE REAPING by Suzanne Collins. In this episode, we deep dive into PART ONE: THE BIRTHDAY and gush about how much we’re feeling this book thus far, what sets it apart from the previous trilogy, which characters we love to hate and love to love, and we even get the chills from getting the chills.
