This is like my 3rd 4 star rating in a raw LOL I'm just handing them out at this point. Mockingjay dragged the triangle when from book one, we knew that Peeta was endgame but complaints about Katniss being whiny and a figurehead seem a bit... eh, she's a 17 year old with unresolved trauma and just desperately wants her sisters and friends to live; she's been thrown into a situation that literally out of her control and so much rests on her, OFC she's going to be a bit annoying and self centered about it. 

Were there persons who had it worse, obviously but what 17 year old has the maturity to compartmentalize and push forward like that. I enjoyed this book and I'm glad she

killed Coin in the end

because that was a hot mess waiting to happen. I

This book took me so long to read because I was in a reading slump, so it says so much that despite that, I still think it's a five star book. I honestly feel so broken because of this book, and I don't know what to do with myself. It was so good, and it made me feel so hollow and so empty so many times. I usually write longer reviews, and maybe I'll come back later and edit this to make it longer, but right now, I have no idea what to say except this book was incredible, and it was the perfect end to this series.
