This book took way long for me to finish. I just had other books to read and kept forgetting. I rated it higher because of the last section. The feelings and thoughts when losing a pet is so real and true. I cried so much! I was thinking about the one time I had to be in that room and make that decision and close other times for another beloved pet so kept thinking of the end for my Peeta as well. All the feels! You know what is coming when you start this book but it still hits hard if you have a furry family member!
