A review by theqissilent
Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

3.0

I loved this series, and I even loved most of Mockingjay...until the last couple chapters. Everything was just so rushed. Prim's death, Katniss's reconciliation with her mother (a mention of a phone call, really??), and Katniss and Peeta's reunion was really glossed over. It felt hollow in a way. We could've at least gotten names for their children. I thought the whole Gale/Peeta thing was old; I felt that decision was made in Catching Fire... And there was so little character growth for Katniss, almost a few steps backward from where she was in Catching Fire. Though I did love the propoganda videos. And the Real? Not Real? game was just touching! But, this book lacked Peeta. Haymitch was right - Katniss just didn't deserve him (lol)... I applaud Collins for not holding back on showing the atrocities of war. Great series overall.
