Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins


Mockingjay is the final book in the Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins. It is, in my opinion, the best book out of the three. Katniss is back "home" from the capitol. However, home is not District 12, where she has lived all along. 12 was bombed in hopes to punish Katniss for the stunt she pulled at the Quarter Quell. She is now living in District 13. Her new home is anything but the ordinary. For starters, they live underground. She would probably be happier if she had Peeta, but he is being held hostage in the Capitol. When a group is formed to go and rescue Peeta, Katniss is not allowed to go. When he comes back, he is very confused. He does not associate love with Katniss, but he associates fear. After a very long time, Katniss and Peeta start to get along with each other. Everyone is very upset by all this that they form a group and go to the Capitol themselves. Many lives are lost along the way, including some very important and loved people. Even though their relationship will never be the same as it use to be, they are back together and very happy.

There is a very surprising twist waiting for you at the end. This book is one of my all time favorites. Before you read this book, make sure you read The Hunger Games and Catching Fire.
