Mockingjay

I finally finished reading Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. It's the final installment to The Hunger Games Trilogy. I wasn't able to get the book until a couple days ago since I was traveling the day it came out. And, boy, was I lucky. The Borders was out of them until a few minutes after I entered the store. They just got a bunch of boxes right then.

In my opinion there is a lot more dealing with what Katniss has going on in her head. She's dealing with a lot of emotional turmoil from beginning to end. She has to deal with trusting the people around her to feeling guilty about the start of the war. There is a lot more that goes on in a 17 year-old girl that has survived through death over and over again; but I don't want to say much else because it could ruin it.

As usual I like Suzanne Collins' writing style. It's easy to follow and understand. I am happy and yet sad that I don't have to wait for another book to come out. I like knowing how things end but I felt like there was a lack of resolution. I also like that about his book though. It's not a complete happy ending, nor is it sad. It's in between, in my opinion. I still enjoyed reading this book, and I recommend it to anyone who is willing to read a good series. There's suspense, gore, action, and love. Go ahead and try it. You'll like it.
