Didn't make it to book 2. Usually it doesn't bother me much when stories are derivative but Red Rising was so blatantly hunger games. I didn't like hunger games in the first place so it was not an pleasant read, to say the least. Actually, the first handful of chapters before it went full hunger games were great, but in retrospect, those parallel the introductory chapters of hunger games too, so even that leaves a bitter aftertaste.

Red Rising was so bad. I had to force myself to finish it. Then I sat and wondered how anyone could think that book was good. Oh well, not for me.
