Hmmm, I'm not sure how I feel about the ending or the conclusion of the romantic triangle. It was all so damned bleak but if it were all wrapped up with a tidy little bow I suppose I would be complaining. I did not enjoy the way one particular character was almost villainized in order to force Katniss into choosing one boy over the other. In the end, it wasn't much of a choice at all and I felt bad for the boy who ended up with Katniss. He deserved her whole heart and I felt he won by default.

So many characters die in this story that when the end comes it is almost a relief. Mockingjay is a painful read. I'm glad I finished it up, actually I had to know how things ended (this series is engaging) but I don't think I'd be able to read it again.
