Review: Mockingjay

May 20, 2013

Mockingjay
by: Suzanne Collins  

4 stars

Overall, a HUGE fan of this trilogy. And while I enjoyed the final installment it just didn't live up to the life and action and HEART of the first two. Did I cry? Oh, yes. Was it still amazing? Yep. But it just felt like it was missing something. Plus, there were some seriously slow parts. I don't need action all the time but I do like SOMETHING to be happening while I'm reading. Character development is super important. But in this novel, there were just some parts that felt like filler and not only not necessary, but at times annoying. 

But, I did love this series. I'm all about jumping on bandwagons that deserve it and this series completely deserves ALL the attention it's received. Can't wait for the movies! 

Read my review of Catching Fire here.

Curious about how I rate books? Read about my scale here. Warning: it's super scientific.
