I finally finished this trilogy over the weekend, but due to the hurricane and loss of power I didn't get a chance to write this up. Which means I forgot a lot of what I was going to say. 
 If you haven't read the rest of the series, this will probably contain spoilers. You've been forewarned. 
 Now that Katniss has sort of accidentally caused a revolution, we're thrown in the middle of it. It's the Capitol v. the Districts, which we sort of knew would happen since book one. It was all strange, though. Katniss is, obviously, The Face of the revolution, and everything she does is being recorded. Like, there are cameras trailing her every move even when she's risking her life. It's a little weird, but I guess that's a dystopia for you. 
 The beginning was a little slow moving, but I think I've said that for all these books. But it was good to see Gale again. I've wanted her to be with Gale since I first saw them hunting in the woods, and no matter how this book ended up I very much enjoyed their moments together. Sure, they had drama, and and sexual tension, but that's what happens when a guy & a girl are best friends. Gale fangirl right here. (And if you've read this book yourself, you know what that means about my opinion on the ending. Just throwing that out there.) 
 There are a lot of things I didn't like about the conclusion. The way some things were handled, which characters died, etc. But that's real life. I'm not going to say this was bad just because I don't like certain plot points. The way they were presented are realistic. Things are horrifying, happy, unbelievable... and it's done well. 
 As a series, I'll admit, not my favorite. Book #1 was fantastic, and I think everyone should read it. And with the cliffhanger, it's impossible not to read the rest. But books #2 and 3 were okay. I didn't love it. I adore Katniss and her family, and I want a Gale in my life, but I just think the story could have been presented better. In each book, there's a long wait for the action to start, and then it feels rushed to finish. There are a lot of things, especially in Mockingjay, that could have been explored more. 
 But I definitely need to discuss the ending with someone so I can spill my opinion on a bunch of spoilers.
