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.

Reading this series growing up, I really hated Mockingjay and thought it ruined the whole series. As an adult, knowing who dies and where the story goes, having experienced trauma of my own, i was able to appreciate it for how masterful it is. She describes trauma and PTSD so incredibly accurately, the types of decisions that are made and the person Katniss becomes show so many nuanced and incredibly profound experiences. Honestly, i kind of hated it a bit because of how real the trauma felt. But it’s also what makes this book incredible. This is a series you can reread 100 times and always find new meaning and understanding in.

Tatiana Maslaney is an INCREDIBLE narrator

So dark that it got me zoning out thinking about death way too often during class and school. People died like every 30 pages it was ridiculous but oh well.

Katniss is rather annoying but from what I know she's not supposed to be relatable or likeable. Plus like I can barely even choose between Gale and Peeta can't believe we didn't get to see the choice on the spot. I would've liked that drama-

Too many deaths, hard to process..

Boggs, Finnick and Prim, though i didnt care much for prim

in the last third of the book, it was getting depressing, so was the ending... but whatever..

I do not regret or enjoy reading this book but oh well
