Been seeing an awful lot of the HBO Chernobyl series shorts on YouTube, so I got the audiobook.
Commonly known as The book that ate my master's degree (I hope it was filling and I truly do), I had forgotten how precise and interesting it was.

Coriolanus is at times insufferable and at times weirdly okay to read about. Even though I wouldn't touch that man with a ten-foot pole.

I feel like Suzanne Collins has a LOT to say about how the Capitol punishes the districts while being happy that they once were their victims during the war - making their punishing of the districts legitimate. I saw it mentioned several times especially through Snow's memories.

Jesus and now the grandma died - I swear when I started this book I had NO IDEA characters would drop like in Attack on Titan.
I have some big respect for Ma though. She's the one holding the family together.
The little chapters in between the Joads' story are national treasures.
