Readers say *Mockingjay* is a powerful, emotionally intense conclusion to *The Hunger Games* series, highlighting Katniss as a strong yet deeply flawe...
Kind of disappointing after the other two. Seemed like she didn't really know what to do with Katniss in the end, just like nobody else knew what to do with her.
After finishing this book, the whole series has been on my mind for some time now. Not only because it was imaginative and different from the norm, but because it really isn't all that different from our modern day life. I guess this, what I thought was just going to be another emotional young reader's trilogy, has got me over analyzing the inspiration of this story. It has made me wish I were not so materialistic and greedy in a sense, and want to find something worth living for other than the day to day drama.
Speaking of drama, I think I might be going a bit over board here. My apologies, this was really a great and adventurous series and I can't wait to see what they do with the movies.

Oh my heart after finishing this series! This is the book of the series that breaks you and puts you back together. So many horrible deaths happened in this one and the torture of poor sweet Peeta. Reading about him trying to find himself again is a hard one because he never wanted to be a pawn in the game. Seeing Katniss and Haymitchs relationship grow and his side with Peeta is such a nice touch. The ending of this series makes my heart feel a little healed.

I was always interested in Tigress and seeing her and learning who she was on The Ballard of Songbirds and Snakes made me even more curious.
I would kill for a story about her and what happened between her and Snow and her backstory. She seemed to love him and was such a a support for him. She seemed like the only person he actually loved and didn't treat badly so what happened between all the time in-between the books.
Ok we are gonna talk about Finnick. I couldn't stand him at first but over time I loved him. His death is one of the first deaths in any book I truly didn't understand and was so pissed about. He was such a big character and had so much to live for and he literally got a sentence for his death and nothing more. ONE FREAKING SENTENCE! His death has sat with me for over 13 years and re-reading it I'm still just as angry.
Having Cinnas death confirmed made me tear up so bad. Katniss thinks she watched his death before going into the game in CF had to have been hard. I'm glad she had the moment with him right before and seeing all the things he made her knowing she was his mockingjay is strangely comforting.
Bogg's characters grew on me in such a short time as well and I was haunted by his death.
Prims death wrecked me. Katniss never was close to her mother but Prim was all she had left of her blood family. She helped raise her and she meant the world to her. Seeing her death uggggh it just killed me.
What made it worse was when Katniss finds Buttercup and just breaks. That whole scene in the book, I'm glad the movie got that right.
When I was younger my hate for Gale wasn't as strong as it is as an adult. I think a part of me didn't fully understand his part in Prims death. Gale could have been a good character and a great friend but he spent so much time trying to push Katniss out of jealousy and almost in a Snow way that she was owed to him. He made bad decisions and I don't fully fault him for that because he knew people were going to die and he took that risk.
