oooof this one was an adventure. an emotional rollercoaster as a reader and my word of advice is: don’t get too attached to any character. they will probably die.

great read, suzanne collins has done it again

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

God, Suzanne Collins is now one of my favorite authors. She created these wonderfully complex, complicated characters that are realistic. Although Mockingjay took me a long time to get into (until around 30%), the sequence of events and the how the characters develop are tense and heartbreaking. The ending is definitely one of my favorites, and I will be staring at the wall for a few hours processing this entire 5-star series.
