A great end to the trilogy. A lot of important characters deaths and plot-points felt a little brushed over or not as impactful as they should’ve been, but the aftermath and Katniss’s mental health and recovery are well-written and heartbreaking.
The Hunger Games is definitely one of the few pieces of media that survived the slow death of the YA dystopian era and stood the test of time. I’ll be revisiting it again one day, and I am now excited to read the prequel book soon.
