This wasn’t the best book in the series but a great way to end Katniss’s journey of being a rebel that fought for the freedom of her people.

The love triangle continued to be annoying but otherwise I liked the story. It reminded me a lot of ATLA in the way it addressed what lines should be crossed when handling enemies. The epilogue rubs me the wrong way because it sounds like Katnis was coerced/worn down into having children.

This book is devastatingly heartbreaking, and yet somehow, full of hope. I did forget how violent it gets there at the end, even more so than the movie. The way the story is constructed, with the rebels mirroring the Capitol, was brilliantly crafted, in my opinion. It's not a lot of people's favorite, but I'm always amazed at how Collins wraps up this trilogy.

Knowing Snow's background also paints this book in a different light, and I can't wait to see how that gets adapted into the movie.
