I am eagerly anticipating the release of the new Hunger Games novel, *Sunrise on the Reaping*, which is set to be one of the most exciting book releases of 2025. The buzz around this book is palpable, as it has consistently ranked on Amazon's best sellers list and even secured a spot in the top five ahead of its release date. Given the success of the previous Hunger Games books, all of which have been adapted into blockbuster movies, it's no wonder that *Sunrise on the Reaping* is generating such high interest. Fans can look forward to its movie adaptation coming in 2026.
*Sunrise on the Reaping* will be released on Tuesday, March 18. Currently, Amazon is offering discounts on both the hardcover and Kindle editions of the book. Additionally, exclusive editions with special extras are available from Barnes & Noble and Target.

What Is Sunrise on the Reaping About?
Sunrise on the Reaping marks the fifth installment in the Hunger Games series, but it explores a different segment of the timeline. Set approximately 40 years after The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and 24 years before the events of the original Hunger Games novel, the story unfolds during the Second Quarter Quell, which was won by Haymitch Abernathy. Fans of the series will recognize Haymitch as the mentor for District 12, famously portrayed by Woody Harrelson in the films.
