#149. Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Title:
Mockingjay
Author:
Suzanne Collins
Genre:
Future/Dystopian/Thriller/Young Adult
Synopsis:
After the chaos of the Quarter Quell, the rebellion is in full flight and The Capitol is cracking down brutally in an attempt to regain control as Katniss is thrust into leadership.
Verdict:
The first 80 per cent of the book is just as fast paced and interesting to me as the first two novels but the ending feels somewhat rushed, like the author ran out of time or space or didn’t craft it as finely as she could have. On one hand that was a bit disappointing but on the other it also felt kind of appropriate. Given the world the events were taking place in, there was no way it couldn’t end in some chaos and with further tragedy.
