Loved this fanfic so much! It’s very well written and clearly shows that you put a lot of time and effort into researching and expanding upon Foxface’s character and the world of Hunger Games. I really hope you’ll continue this story some day. You got me all invested in Foxface’s journey and her point of view! I’d love to see her time in the arena and see if she was somehow able to “fox” her way out. Either way this was one of the best fanfics I’ve read in a long-long time.

No reviews for 3 years made me sad so I thought I’d leave one, I really enjoyed reading this story, a completely different and interesting take on the first book. I’d really like to hear the rest of the story at some point I hope you finish it!

I have a feeling Finch is going to collect a lot of information about the other tributes in training.

No need to apologize for long chapters, a lot went on in this one. I enjoyed Finch reasoning out why she was reaped, and am intrigued by the thought of a potential plan C. Her conversation with Flint was really interesting.

I loved the whole interaction with Cinna. Having him be from D8 explains a lot about his differences from the Capitolites. It makes a lot of sense. And I have to say the color changing medal is cool!

Your Finch has such good chances ... I don't know if you plan to go AU and have her win or not, I guess I'll have to wait and see!

While reading I thought "they wouldn't use her nickname!" but then you explained that.

Finch is clearly smart enough to understand that an offer like this doesn't come without a price. The real question is what Snow wants from her ...

Hmmm ... I'm thinking that Cinna was talking about finding a mockingjay, not a dog show ...

I liked the prep work and how it mirrors what Finch will have to go through in the Games. I'm sure her stylist won't be as cool as Cinna!

I enjoyed all the research into the Games in this chapter, it's the kind of thing I would do.

Some small notes, you said she has 5 slips, one for every year she's been alive. I think you meant one for every year of reaping age, which makes her 16?

Also saying the odds go from 1 in 24 to 1 in 10 after ten die in the bloodbath isn't right, there are 14 left so it's 1 in 14.

I'm enjoying your Finch so far, she always struck me as smart and clever.

The last few chapters are at least as good as the first 7. Your scene between Foxface and Pr. Snow is especially fascinating closely followed by the last discussion between Foxface and Cinna.
You also found a clever way to explain why she should (and will) reject Snow's "generous" proposition. Of course she will pay for it :(
Finally I love all the details which makes the story more nuanced and therefore really interesting.

Agh! The rose strikes again! What a beautiful image to end a chapter on. Good job! It makes me sad that Suzanne Collins isn't going to write anymore Hinger Games stuff but I can get my Hunger Games fix just be reading this. Keep writing scenes like the one between Snow and Katherine/Foxface and you'll be golden!

BTW, I love all the little details you sprinkle through. It makes the second read-through that much more interesting.

That was probably one of your better chapters. A!

That scene between Snow and Katherine was perfect! You captured the President perfectly. It gave me shivers just imagining the scene playing out, especially that last line. I hope the rest of this story approaches the kind of quality (in my opinion) that was showcased. Well done! I'm trying to connect the dots to how she's reaped... the President certainly didn't help his case, even if he doesn't lie.

Something tells me that the conversation she overheard between Cinna and "Hermes" was about her, not about a dog show - although that was a good excuse that he gave. I can't wait to read the next chapter.
