Praise for SUNRISE ON THE REAPING:#1 USA Today Bestseller#1 New York Times Bestseller#1 Indie Bestseller#1 Publishers Weekly BestsellerA New York Times Editors' ChoiceAn Amazon Best Book of 2025"A propulsive, brutal Hunger Games prequel is here. And it's great." The New York Times"Yes, the new Hunger Games prequel is really that good. Everything Hunger Games fans could want and more." USA Today"Collins is awfully good at what she does. It's a life-giving book." PEOPLE"Like Margaret Atwood and George Orwell before her, Collins' novels have become part of the lexicon, an adjective - this is very Hunger Games - used to illustrate government overreach and authoritarianism. The Hunger Games series, including Sunrise on the Reaping, is a central part in the American dystopian literary canon." MSNBC"[I]t's as if Collins is asking us to reflect on how much we really know of our history, and how much power we have in ensuring that our current truths have a place in the future." NPR"Sunrise on the Reaping...succeeds in the near-impossible task of making a well-trod story feel as intimate and visceral as its predecessors." ELLE"Genuinely outstanding." Paste"Equal parts touching and deeply sad." Teen Vogue★ "[A] brutal tale of compassion and rage, and a frank examination of propaganda and tragedy, that will satisfy longtime series fans and newcomers alike." Publishers Weekly, Starred Review★ "Raw, shocking, and deeply bittersweet, Haymitch's backstory pulls the pieces of the Hunger Games universe together with ease....Collins has mentioned in past interviews that she would not return to this series unless she had something to say-and she has a lot to say." Booklist, Starred Review★ "Required reading for fans of the original trilogy. A must-have." School Library Journal, Starred Review
