Mockingjay


I'll probably do a full review at some point, but I'm only on page 83 at the moment.
And it's good...But I'm disappointed that Peeta hasn't played a bigger part in the book so far. Of course he wouldn't. The Capitol has him, and the story follows Katniss. So he wouldn't show up much, would he? Still, I hope they rescue him soon. Before the last one hundred pages. I want him to be a large part of the final chapter of The Hunger Games, or I'll be left very unsatisfied, regardless of how it all turns out.
I tried to see it from both perspectives...My own, which is that Katniss loves Peeta, and the other group of people who believe she's in love with Gale. I still don't get it. Even after re-reading the first two books. It's going to take a lot of convincing at this point to get me to buy into that, if that's how Suzanne Collins decided to end it.
As for District 13, I have mixed feelings there. But that will be saved for if/when I do a complete review.
One last thing, every time Cinna's name is mentioned, I get a little more depressed. His fate has not yet been confirmed, but considering what happened in Catching Fire, and what's been said so far in Mockingjay, it's not looking very good.
