MTV Analyzes the New ‘Mockingjay’ Cover!

Posted February 11, 2010 by Kimmy in Books

This new “Mockingjay” cover is sky blue, a color that feels a lot like hope and freedom, especially when paired with a more realistically drawn bird that appears to have broken free from the circle, with its wings outstretched. When we last saw Katniss, Peeta and Gale, they were on a hovercraft headed to the promised land of District 13, while the rest of Panem was in an all-out revolution. The people were clearly ready to spread their wings, but if we know anything about this season, we know that they will have to fly far and dodge quite a few bullets before they’re home-free.

    I’m so excited for this book. I really love the cover. I agree that it symbolizes Katniss and co. breaking free from the Capitol. I was wondering if you guys think this series will have a happy or sad ending? With all the death shown through the books it seems likely that only a few characters will get there happy ending, but the question is which ones?( I’m rooting for Katniss, Gale and Prim)

    Except for Peeta, we know the capitol has him but where and what’s happening. I do love the sumbolism of this cover. I always kind of picked a mocking jay as a black bird, but I understand that white works better in terms of symbolism.

    They got it a little wrong … Peeta wasn’t there … *Cries* BUT hopefully he’ll show back up again, you can’t have The Hunger Games without a Peeta. That’s just wrong.
