The Story: Katniss Everdeen has made it out of the arena twice. It wasn't by accident that she was rescued out of the Quarter Quell instead of her fellow tribute, Peeta Mellark. After those last hectic moments in the Quell, Katniss learns that Peeta has been taken by the Capitol, and the whole country is in rebellion. She is the face of the rebellion, ever since she pulled out those berries in the arena. But now, will she be able to become the Mockingjay and lead the whole country of Panem to revolution? Can she bring unity to all the districts and overthrow the Capitol?
*Sorry, I take my word back :) This part will have a lot of spoilers and angry rants... don't say you haven't been warned :)*
Chloe's Critique: This has been one wild ride. It's hard to believe that the series is over already! Mockingjay is the darkest of the trilogy, yet it's full of hope. Hope that the rebels will win. Hope that Peeta's okay. Hope that life will be better. By the end of the book, I was an emotional wreck, crying uncontrollably. But it still didn't live up to my expectations. Really? Did she really need to kill Prim? I mean really????? That was totally unnecessary! And Katniss wasn't Katniss at all in this book! I mean, shes' an emotional wreck and just gives up. And the biggest upset: Gale. For all the fans out there, I'm team Gale. Even though Gale didn't win Katniss' heart, I hated how Suzanne made it seem like they never talked again. He was her best friend! And technically, even though it was his bomb design that killed Prim, he didn't drop the bomb! Katniss doesn't deserve Gale and I hope she's happy with Peeta Mellark- "Today, we let him feed himself pudding! Plutarch says". Peeta = epic fail. Even though I didn't like it that much, Mockingjay will be sure to delight Hunger Game fans around the world.
