The ending off this trilogy definitely did not disappoint! This entire story went from one girl making a decision to call bullshit on the stupid rules of a cruel game created by horrible people to becoming the reluctant mascot for an entire uprising. What I loved even more was the fact that the rebellion was also seen as a morally bankrupt organization at times. Watching her go from becoming a puppet for the Capitol to a puppet for the rebellion was depressing but so realistic. I know that the epilogue is a disputed part of the book, but I actually really liked it. I liked that Katniss was able to have a life that would have been robbed from her if she had not thought to lift those berries to her lips at the end of the first book.
