Read More: Mockingjay

Update:

Well, it's over. It was very stressful going towards the end there, so I'm glad to be done with it. Did some of the outcomes make my heart ache a little? A lot? Yes. But unhappy endings make the most memorable books and it kept me guessing to the last! Now that it's through I can definitely recommend you read the trilogy. But be careful, there is a chance you'll ignore work in favor of reading the books and get caught by Kenneth Parcell!

Now back to the other 8 books I'm working on. More heartache awaits in Project Nim, I'm sure.

Mockingjay, the last book in the Hunger Games trilogy, turned up at the library more quickly than I could have hoped! I was snooping through Megan's room one weekend and found it lying on the floor, in her library pile. So exciting! Maybe I look like a dork, reading tween lit on the subway, but I don't care. The Hunger Games are good stuff.

This book didn't disappoint. All the loose ends in the trilogy got tied up. Who does the heroine end up with? Her taciturn, hawkish childhood friend? Or her sunny, gentle Hunger Game-partner? How does she avoid getting co-opted by power hungry warlords? And what happens when the revolution ends? What will she do to the enemy she hates when she suddenly finds herself in charge? It's a timely book, in light of all the revolutions playing out in the Middle East! So many times it seems like you just end up replacing one tyrannical government with another. If only Katniss were in charge.

A fun, quick read!
