Time for a #Fable update!
I’ve just finished #SunriseOnTheReaping, and the comparison between Fable and #Goodreads is now stark. Fable’s book review section is leaps and bounds better than Goodreads. I like that you can grade different parts of the book, and they provide options to describe the book. It’s a lot easier to leave a detailed review without even typing a personal one. Plus, I LOVE that you can identify possible issues/trigger warnings for other readers. I think a peer reviewed TW section is helpful if people are actively avoiding certain topics.
Kelvin Harrison Jr as BeeTee is going to be very confusing for me because he is very handsome so if he takes on a lot of the weird mannerisms that BeeTee in Catching Fire had, it will be weird for my brain. lol
The other one that will be interesting to see will be Maysilee, because at the beginning of the book, I pictured her like Nellie Oleson from Little House on the Prairie. Like, even until the very end, I picture her with those stupid curls being mean AF, even if I'm cheering her on in the end. lol
Now that I've almost finished #SunriseOnTheReaping, I finally had a look at the casting for the movie and OH MY GOD. They knocked it out of the park! There are so many characters where I saw who was cast and went “Holy SHIT that's PERFECT!!” I think Kieran Culkin as Caesar Flickerman is perfect and Jesse Plemons as Plutarch are both incredible choices. Elle Fanning as Effie is INSPIRED, and Ralph Fiennes as Middle Aged Snow is terrifying. Absolutely terrifying. Glenn Close as Drusilla is hilarious, and Billy Porter as Magno is painfully obvious. I can't stand Billy Porter so it will be easy to hate him.
There are a few casting choices that make me blink and shake my head. Like... Wyatt is Asian? Come on. Of course the Asian knows the math. 🙄 When I read the book, I kept envisioning him like Thresh, but I think that's because I kept thinking of Louella like Rue and since Wyatt protects Lou Lou, they just filled those roles in my mind.
Amanecer en la cosecha (Los Juegos del Hambre 5, 2025)
Pensaba que una segunda precuela iba a ser muy innecesaria (y lo es), pero está bien. La historia está bien contada y mola conocer cómo Haymitch acabó siendo Haymitch. Para cuando llegas al final le has cogido cariño a los personajes casi tienes ganas de que no pase lo que sabemos que pasa.
Si te gusto LJDH pues es otro más en el mismo estilo, fácil de leer y entretenido.
