This book felt so dragged out. I really struggled to keep reading and missed the tension from the earlier 2 books. But the epilogue and the ending, i love it

STORY
I find the idea behind the revolution interesting, but the execution leaves a bit to be desired. I also didn't really feel the tension and build-up to why the revolution started. I also felt that the whole story around District 13 could have been better, as it had so much potential. I really loved the storyline around Peeta though. Peeta getting bad and turning against Katniss, I love it.
So I still don't get why she shot Coin?


CHARACTERS
Katniss - OMG she remains so irritating and it keeps getting worse, because I don't understand why she hasn't figured out long ago that it was always Peeta. She keeps playing between lame Gale and awesome Peeta, my choice is quickly made though.
Peeta - I wish we got to see more of Peeta, on this book he was really in the background though. I would have loved to see the process on how she turned him into multilant and his emotions in the process.
And Haymitch is really great in this book. Again, the side characters make the story more bearable.
So I was wrong and Finnick does die and that's the only thing that made me feel anything in this book.
