I finally read the final book in the Hunger Games Trilogy. I procrastinated after reading mixed reviews. I wanted to love Mockingjay and was afraid I wouldn't so I just didn't read it. I had accidentally ran across a few spoilers. I had a email from a friend and in the first line it said I'm so glad ______ and ______ ended up together. Grrr!
I was ready for what was coming when I did finally read this book. I knew it was not going to be happily ever after, I knew it was going to be violent, I knew it would be a wild ride. Mockingjay is a book about war, the reality of war, war is not pretty. I can see why some people were disappointed in this book. War changes people and that was not glossed over in this book.
As for me I was engrossed in the story the entire time. I probably would have loved it if I'd read it when it came out but I'm glad I waited a few months to read it. I enjoyed Suzanne Collin's Gregor series and love the Hunger Games. Can't wait to see what she comes up with next.
Rating: 5 Stars
Content: To me this was a clean read no sex or language however to many it wouldn't be considered clean because there was plenty of violence.
