dark emotional sad

5.0

Wow ok. That was depressing. I didn’t expect
ever single death to hit me that hard, but especially Prim’s death hurt the most. I really appreciated the last chapter and epilogue of things getting better, because man that was depressing. Katniss’ depression, dissociation, and other trauma responses were, in my opinion, well written to allow readers to easily understand her headspace and reasoning.

The one thing that confused me, and honestly pissed me off, is how Katniss voted yes to one last hunger games. Like what?? Girl, the hunger games are what got you here and you’re ok with another one???? Huh????????
Edit: I’ve read some fan theories and I kinda get it now.

Everything else about the ending, I was pretty satisfied with. The only thing is that I would have liked to know is Anne’s ok. I understand why that wouldn’t have been included in the end, but I just really hoped that she would be alright eventually.


Also I’m trying to fill out some content warnings and realizing how dark this book was. Like really really dark.

I have definitely enjoyed reading The Hunger Games trilogy, yet I didn't enjoy this book as much as the previous two. But I guess it depends on what you've liked about the series so far—the world-building and challenging political ideas in the second book or (for me) the action of the first Hunger Games.

Woooh! This book was messy! Does it make me toxic that I liked it?! I cannot imagine a better ending than what was given. To be fair this was my least favorite Katniss for like the majority of this book (even though I understand she was dealing with a lot). However, the final stand in the capital was riveting and heartbreaking.

Even the way Suzanne Collins writes about the political and economic struggle that finally boils over. I still have tons of questions but this series deserves a standing ovation! Bravo!!!👏🏾
