I enjoyed all the Hunger Games books, though sometimes I found Katniss' thought processes a little tiring. This book had a pefect ending to the series!

[Anne · Rating 3 out of 5]

Still enjoyable but a little predictable. The first 2 books in the trilogy are better.

Wow. What an ending to this Peeta POV of the THG series. This one was hard to get through in some parts, specifically when Peeta is being held captive and tortured, but I loved reading how his mind was working during all of this (I’m sure Suzanne Collins would agree!). Not sure if I want to read the final book in this series, as it is Katniss’s point of view leading up to the Mockingjay epilogue, but I loved this series and like maybe I’m into fanfic now??? Or maybe I just love The Hunger Games 🤷🏻‍♀️

The trilogy to the Hunger Games was just as good as the first two. It is about Katniss Everdeen when she agrees to act as the "Mockingjay" and fights the capitol. This book breaks out in war, and it is a fight against all the districts. In this book, Katniss goes on a roller coaster with love and she finally accepts her love for Peeta. This book shows the theme of betrayal and loyalty. Katniss expereinces betrayal because she has to give up a lot to fight in the games. It is a story of love and loyalty because people have to stick together to survive. The main character tells this story in first person, which helps the reader predict what will happen in the future. I would recommend this book to anyone because it is good for many ages and has a lot of events that keep the reader engaged.

This is the last of the Hunger Games trilogy. In spite of myself I loved the first two books, The Hunger Games and Girl on Fire. By the third, I was growing tired of the dystopian future society that North America had become as the nation of Panem. It is a land where an elite Capitol district has become effete and outrageous, ruled by a tyrant who is heartless. Children from the various districts are chosen to annihilate each other. A 17 year-old girl becomes the face of the rebellion. The series is at least one book too long for my taste. The fact that children pay for the excesses of their elders is appalling, and the sense that changes in America could portend such a society are frightening.

Rebellion takes over the capital but how you ask? See Katnis got pulled out of the quarter quill, the quarter quill is like the worst version of the regular hunger games. Like I was saying the tributes made an alliance and some of them wanted to get out of the arena like Katnis. Some thing spontaneous happens then gets picked up from a hover craft and goes to district 13 which was supposed to be dead because they acted in rebellion but they… you'll have to read to figure that part out. Then Katnis finally agree to be the rebels face (mocking jay) . Then they go district to district to take over the capital. The only reason 12 moved to 13 is cause 12 actually got bombed really horrifying. Will the districts take over the capital?!

The main reason why I wanted to read the books was because I could no longer wait for the films to know how it ends. I have to say the books are very well adapted to the screen. Apart from Peeta's artificial leg, nothing has much changed. The book merely gives more insight in the thoughts and well-being of Katniss. The second half of the Mockingjay (in filmterms) is going to be messy. I thought at one point it was a bit too much. The death of some characters was completely unnecessary. The ending of the book was unexpected, but then again, a bit over the top. There was no need to separate that many couples in the end. Still it ended in a sort of happy ending.

I loved the first two books, but book Three was a chaotic mess. It felt like almost everything after they leave the arena was just a bunch of half-planned ideas thrown together in some semblance of order. Most of the focus on the last part of the book seems to be on whatever freakish torture devices the author could think of rather than the actual characters.

Fun to read this trilogy. Couldn't imagine what was left to talk bout after the first book, but she sure invented a story. Fast, fast reading. I wasn't sure about a nine year old reading these books...wondered ow much they'd truly nderstand. Must have been a wild movie. The third book was nowhere as interesting as the first. She got way too wordy trying to keep the books going.

[Valerie Hemlin · Rating 3 out of 5]

I loved the first two, but I felt this one lacked the same energy as the first two. Katniss' point of view is more confused and less focused than before. I was sorry it ended this way, especially when it was such a great beginning.

The series was wonderful....I will recommend this series to ANY adult and young adult at school.

Still pretty much a page turner and enjoyed it as well as recommend the Triology.

[Nancy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Not as good as the other two, the first was the best by far, but I enjoyed it and it gave a satisfactory conclusion to the story.

A fitting end to the series. There is a lot of violence, but also a lot of bravery and hope.

I was a little tired of the sequel by the third book. Overall it was an entertaining read. A little depressing towards the end. I enjoyed the first two books more.

[Julie · Rating 1 out of 5]

I found this dull and depressing. I recommend you stop after reading the first two.

Excellent way to end a very enjoyable trilogy. Great characters, plenty of twists and turns through out. Highly recommended.
