Mockingjay - Suzanne Collins


Young Katniss Everdeen has survived the dreaded Hunger Games not once, but twice, but even now she can find no relief. In fact, the dangers seem to be escalating: President Snow has declared an all-out war on Kattnis, her family, her friends, and all the oppressed people of District 12. The thrill-packed final installment of Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games trilogy will keep young hearts pounding.

Finally after what feels like forever I was able to finish Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. I knew that if I just had some time to sit down and read I would read it quickly! Well I had a quiet office on Friday at work and I read the whole thing!!

I loved this book soo much!! I thought it was a wonderful conclusion to an already wonderful series.

Katniss is having to deal with being the rebels Mockingjay and all the while dealing with not knowing what is happening to Peeta who was captured by the Capitol.

The rebels continue to take over the district slowly cutting off the Capitol. Katniss wants to go into battle she wants to kill President Snow.

The rebels are able to rescue Peeta and other captives of the Capitol but he's changed. He's not the same Peeta Kat remembers. The Capitol has brainwashed him to hate her and question all of his memories of her.

So even though she has Peeta back she has to work to regain his trust and help him remember what they shared.


SPOILERS!! DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU DO NOT WANT THIS BOOK SPOILED FOR YOU!!





So while I did love this book but I have to say throughout the whole series I personally loved Gale more than Peeta. I don't know I guess Gale is more my type than Peeta. So in the end when she chooses Peeta over Gale I was not really surprised but I kind of wish she would have chosen Gale but what can you do?

Also I was super sad Finnick died. I had really liked his character and think maybe he should have had the chance to be happy.

Also OMG I about fainted when Prim (Kat's sister) was killed. I was just completely shocked!!
