Honestly I am still mad about
Prim and finnick
unnecessary deaths, but really this is a WAR. people die! I don't understand why some people are missing that! 
Also, some people complain about the love triangle between katniss, gale, and peeta. However, I don't think this book is a romantic thing. It doesn't have the same feel as the other books.
Some people complain about the book being boring, but that's not the case for me. The only boring part for me is (slight not really spoiler) when there is that long period of time when snow is alive and katniss is silent. Personally, this is the most boring book of the three, only because in the first and second book included the actual hunger games and not becoming part of the Capitol. But, let's face it, we all saw it coming.
If y'all really don't like this, I can see why, but I give this a 5/5!

In this book, I saw a more flawed Katniss. She is a strong character who was/is burdened by the power hungry old people; and their audacity. 
She is a total mess and psychologically not treatable. 
Reading her being filmed and act with cameras around her was hard to read. It’s like she was back in the capitol but more traumatized then ever.

On the other hand, I hate love triangles. And this book did not help either. There were times I hated Katniss for actually playing both of them. The plot was already stressful enough. I just didn’t care about Katniss’s love story. Honestly I preferred the films interpretation. 

Hunger Games is an anthem. Will always cherish it.

PSA: I wanted to read this series because I still haven’t watching the ballad of songbirds and snares. But I also wanted to read Crimson Rivers (an ff).

Amazing end to the trilogy! It had me hooked beginning to end, I finished it in less than a day. Katniss is such an interesting character, I love how she is portrayed as human, not as this perfect protagonist. Also just they way Suzanne Collins wrote all the characters was amazing. They all had such depth. All the deaths were heartbreaking.
maybe not Alma Coins ;)

at the start i did not like this book. it was more slow and thorough compared to its predecessors. once i got more into it though the full body of the story came out. unlike the others, it really dives into katniss’ ptsd. if you want an emotional rollercoaster this is for you. and the last few pages made me cry.
