It was a great read. Read until 3 am! Haha. The book took on a more violent and harsh environment with Collins detailing every death scene explicitly. The deaths of some of the main characters were unforeseen, and the exposure of the real truth at the end was unexpected. Although Peeta and Katniss got together at the end, the book clearly did not end on a full good note, which is completely realistic based on the magnitude of sorrow and trauma they took. Readers can't just expect the both of them to recuperate from the events in an instant, and have their cliched ending of "happy ever after" fulfilled. Yet it was a great read all throughout! P.S. Liked the first book though the most! Live "The Hunger Games"
The final book in the Hunger Games series is even more gripping and exciting than the first two which were amazing in themselves. Katniss Everdeen, the heroine, has an extremely difficult journey to undergo. She is a very brave 17 year old girl, but she often doubts her choices and actions. This undercurrent is part of what makes this such a wonderful book. She is strong and fights hard but continually wonders how her actions are adversely affecting the people in her life and the people she loves. Suzanne Collins keeps us guessing right up to the end in regards to what people will stay in Katniss' life. As with the other two books in the series it has a great deal of violence and cruelty, but they are necessary in order to tell the story. It is wonderfully written but I would not recommend it to anyone under the age of twelve. For anyone who enjoys stories where goodness finally wins, with a little magic and a lot of blood, this is the book for them.Read full review
I bought this book for my 14 year old son. The first book in the 3 book series, the "Hunger Games" was on his summer reading list for school. My son is not normally a fast reader but he loved this book and flew through it. Since then I bought the other 2 books in the series including the is one. I was so intrigued by how this and the other books captivated him that I read each book when he finished. Even though these books were made about teens (main characters), it was an excellent book for an adult to read. The content was fairly mature. Nothing graphic but included the horrors from war, segregation and oppression of people. It also included a conflicting romance. Again, nothing graphic.
I have a few series I like to read over & over like Hunger Games eyth ;n)_6aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaae with Catching Fire, Mockjingay) by Suzanne
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
I bought this because I was hoping for a great deal and a wonderful conclusion to this magnificent 3 part series. I loved the book, I couldn't stop reading it. It is a wonderful series and has a an epic conclusion as hoped for. The book appeared to be in perfect condition. I cant even keep a book in this good of condition without more ware and tare. The hardcover is very nice, especially since its over 300 pages, and overall just lasts longer.
