This book was definitely my least favorite out of the trilogy. I did enjoy it but the book had some pacing issues. Katniss really infuriated me in this book, even though she had been through a lot she is still just a teenager which i understand but her actions were uncalled for. In this book she acted in her emotions a lot and people got hurt and killed because she wasn’t thinking things through. This book was very tragic  and all of the deaths felt very unnecessary. Overall I think this book was pretty good i just think it had some flaws that could have been fixed.

Reading this series as an adult is so much more meaningful than when I was a kid. My only complaint about this book is the pacing; a lot of the book felt a bit slow while certain parts in the Capital were breezed over too quickly. But the author does an amazing job at capturing the aftereffects of trauma in these characters. This book is the culmination of a series with themes like: media’s impact on public opinion, authoritative governance, the lasting effects of trauma, being used as a pawn in the plans of others, etc. I’m less satisfied with the ending now as an adult because the internal scars of Katniss, Peeta, and others are more clear to me than when I first read this book and was just happy Katniss and Peeta end up together- but war doesn’t satisfy anyone. It feels so realistic and penetrating that while there were moments of tears while reading, I am reeling in the aftermath and will probably sob as I dwell on the trauma, what it meant for the characters, and what it means in real life. Everyone should read this series.

Rereading this book did not make it hurt any less. The pain and suffering these characters go through is tremendous. The ugliness of war is shown quite well.
