While I was a person who didn't jump right on the band wagon when told to read this series of books, I did finally read (well, listen to the audio book) the first two of the series. I then had to join the masses who salivated waiting to find out what happened to Katniss, Peeta, and the other characters from the story. I was very excited when the book came out but very sad because it was the first week of school and I was supper busy. I started the book but wasn't able to read much (maybe a chapter a day) until last weekend. That was when I stayed in bed until I had basically finished the book. I have to say there were things I loved and hated about the story. I do agree with many others that this series is not written as a love story but much more than that. I will try not to spoil the book for those who have not read it but beware at the end I will have a spoiler section so don't read past if you don't want to know.
Mockingjay is the final book of the Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins. It continues the story from where Katniss has been rescued out of the second Hunger Games by the rebels. She has many tough decisions to make in order to decide how her future as well as the future of all of those in Panem and District 13 will unfold.
Honestly, if I tell more it will give away too much of the story. If you are into this series I believe you will enjoy the last book even if parts will be expected and predictable.
I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for 13 years and up.
Don't continue reading if you don't want to have part of the book spoiled.

Several times I had to go back and reread sections of the book because I was sure I had miss read the information. But each time I was right it was written that way. For example near the end Katniss is going to assassinate President Snow but kills someone else instead. I had to read that 3 times before I was sure I had read it correctly. It didn't make sense and yet again it did.
