THIS POST GIVES AWAY MUCH OF THE BOOK!!! DO NOT READ UNLESS YOU HAVE FINISHED THE BOOK!!!
I finished Mockingjay.
(If you haven't stopped reading this but still haven't read the book, then this is your last chance. Stop. Reading. This. Post. Now.)
I was disappointed.
Don't get me wrong, there were some very good parts, but I didn't like some of the things she did.
I mean, seriously, Peeta??? Well, sure, that's the sweet guy, but Gale is so fiery and passionate, plus he's been her friend like forever. So what if he tends to be a little violent?
And the ending was very foggy. It just got really confusing and stuff. Plus, Katniss wasn't a real part of the actual invasion. Yes, it would be hogging the spotlight, but that's what main charactors do. A much better ending would be: She enters alone, having lost sight of friends/watched them die. Driven insane by the sites she's seen, she kills all who approach her. But when she sees a child crying, she snaps out of it. When she holds the child as it dies, she is desperate to end this pointless war. And so she storms the mansion, kills snow, and then everything else will work out.
Don't you think that's better?
I did really like the whole running-through-the-town-everyone-dieing-off thing, I just wish she had elaborated on some of the characters. It was difficult keeping track of who died.
The closest I've ever come to crying happened last night. When Finnick died, I started almost sobbing. No tears or anything, but still.
It only took about five hours to read. I finished around one twenty this morning. I got my hands on it at four, but went grocery shopping with mom and then went online and chatted at the GYC.
Anyway, I need to start cleaning up the house (Bleck) and I think I'm going to do a new poll.
Till the next time I post, I wish you all the best of luck. Latters
