"Fire is catching! And if we burn, you burn with us!"

i want to beat gale with a stick, why did he keep appearing :|
the love triangle needed to end like yesterday
katniss' final monologue about choosing peeta about being the dandelion that calms her fire is one of the romantic things i've ever read tho

i do feel like this is the weakest installment, with the action not being as strong as I'd like it to be, but it was still a pleasant read

i like the fact that

coin is actually quite villainous too and gave the ending more nuance

A good sequel and good closure for Katniss. Would like a sequel focused on another character too, showing what happens to Panem next.

Heaviest book of the three. The main cast goes off the deep end. One of the character sacrifices themselves for the others. Several characters die.
