Mockingjay completes a seamless transition by THG from anti capitalist literature to war literature (not that they're mutually exclusive, I just have more experience w the first)
Again, most of the book's substance lies in its plot, content, and worldbuilding rather than its language
Ironically enough I was more interested in the explorations of trauma and relationships than the war stuff - the commentary around the cycle of war is p straightforward, but the romance and trauma things are far more ambiguous
I am tired so I will end it here - great final book to a great trilogy, but I strongly recommend that one reads it with the unreliability of karniss as a narrator in mind
