I would’ve liked it if Katniss hurt Gale after the things he had done but at the same time it showed that he never cared about Katniss the way Peeta did. Gale left her after she tried looking for him so he could save him, he left District 12 instead of staying with the girl he supposedly loves after Darius’ comment. Even if Peeta’s actions towards Katniss isn’t like how it was, he still tried to fix their relationship which then lead to Katniss and Peeta being endgame and having kids together. It still hurts that Peeta was more manipulated in the book compared to him being nice towards Katniss but that’s what war does.
So why isn’t it a 5 star? Well, in my opinion, it felt a bit slow and confusing. There would be a time where Katniss was just constantly knocked out and then back into action which would leave me completely confused. Some characters that I should’ve cared about that were introduced in this book didn’t interest me because of the constant change, sometimes nothing happened and then all of sudden they’re getting bombed. I was excited to read about Tigris but she made such little impact that I became disappointed in the book after Catching Fire (my absolute favorite) I just became sad with the story but not enough to give a bad review.
