Buttercup is probably as mighty as katniss. (And my favorite) 
This is a reread and i forgot how dark this one last book was. 

Honestly i hope people could be kind to eachother. With the war in Palestina, we're no better than fiction. What i find truly hurtful os that real people out there is really suffering from the non logical power starved leaders. 

I really enjoyed this book, but i still do not like the romance part. There's so much hopelessness in the whole story that it all seems out of place, although I guess that's the fun of it. That love can grow everywhere. (still give's me the ick all that romance, mainly in book two).

Reread. Really good conclusion to the series. I feel it tied up all the threads that have been laid over the course of the books, while still acknowledging that life goes on, and though this conclusion might not be perfect, it was still worth fighting for. Definitely some painful moments over the course of the book- I cried a lot, but I think those moments were done really well and felt worth something.

I mostly enjoyed this book… until the last hundred pages or so, which was painful to get through and not even very enjoyable just because it’s so depressing… but otherwise, it wasn’t bad! I really liked all the politics of it and how complex all the characters were. Be warned before you read it, it’s not “fun” except for like 2 scenes maybe, but plot-wise I think it was a great end to the series.
