What Is Sunrise on the Reaping About?

*Sunrise on the Reaping* is the fifth novel in the Hunger Games series, but it takes place at a different point in 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 featuring Katniss Everdeen, this 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 film adaptations.
