Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

 Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, 390 pages

Mockingjay is probably my least favorite of the series, which is strange to me because I thought the ending was spectacular.  Gale's likeability, a low crest at the best of the series, plummets into the Mariana Trench. But the parallels between Coin and Snow, 13 and the Capitol, are written heartbreakingly well.  The ending, while not particularly happy, is satisfying, and something you can see Collins was building towards since the very first chapter.

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins- 390 pgs

Katniss Everdeen has survived two trips to The Hunger Games and her home district being destroyed by The Capital.  The one thing she might not survive is her fellow tribute, Peeta Mellark, being held captive by The Capital.  Living in District 13, Katniss agrees to become the face of the revolution, the Mockingjay.  To bring down The Capital and save Peeta's life, Katniss is going to need the support of everyone around her and find the inner strength that has seemed to used up by the events in her life.

This was just as good this time around as it was the last time I read.  I had to reread the series after seeing Catching Fire and I can't wait to see what they do with the movie version of this book.
