SPOILER ALERT! DO NOT READ AHEAD IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO READ!

well katniss never really chose peeta. he was the only one in district 12 to choose. and she’s a hollow shell of the real katniss. and she doesn’t even seem happy with her kids. and i wished prim had a rue moment with katniss. like katniss at her grave or something singing a song and leaving a primrose or dandelion. R.I.P. prim!

SPOILERS SPOILERS

So… at the start of chapter 25 I was just in a kind of daze, waiting for Prim to walk through the door, because PRIM CAN’T DIE! SHE JUST CAN’T! But on the line,’My mother buries her grief in her work’ I realised that Prim had actually died. That was the moment where I started crying. My brother and parents shot me some really worried looks and I blubbered to them that Prim had died. They, having no idea who Prim is, left the room. It then took me a long time to read the rest of the book since the words were all blurry. Last night I spent the entire night playing solitaire on my bedroom floor, trying to wrap my head around the fact that Prim had died.

SPOILER!!

Though I see most of you have read it. Was anyone else thinking that Katniss’s “mission” was pointless? I mean, the rebels would’ve gotten to Snow anyway in the end. Finnik shouldn’t have died and I felt like lots of the things that happened were not given the same attention I was used to from the first two books. Every major thing happened in only a few phrases…

SPOILER!

@Rokku I just finished the book in one night and felt depressed but happy at the same time….. Finnick shouldn’t have died true but if he did why don’t give him the honor of explaining his death.. but maybe because Katniss is the narrator SC didn’t explain much to show that Katniss is in a hurry…
sorry ?I don’t know ow to explain it but yeah…. forget it and let’s all mourn everyone who is dead….

Thumb up 0 Thumb down 0


by C.is.for.Custard on August 27 - 10:51 am

SPOILER ALERT! they should really have a spoiler page so we don’t have to keep saying this…

I actually knew Prim was going to die because I had a feeling but the thing that made me cry the most is when Buttercup came home from 13… but one thing I missed the most was Peeta and Katniss scenes. where Peeta told Katniss he loved her and Katniss feeling that warm feeling inside… .and there was only one scene like that and that was at the very end! I wish there were more scenes like that and I knew there were going to be a lot of deaths but I didn’t expect that much!
Then Effie pops up all happy and bouncy as ever going IT’S A BIG BIG DAY! for some reason I felt like slapping her…… overall I loved the book MJ but there depression lingers through me everytime I think about the book…. I have the UK version of the cover so after I finished it and it was about midnight I just lay there in my bed studying the bright colours and stroking the book.I’m stroking it right now….. I’m deeply sad and disappointed because the trilogy has come to an end and there wont be anymore books. But the epilogue, hmmmm at the end it says

But there are much worse games to play

does it mean exactly what it says or is there another meaning to it?

by Vittoria on August 27 - 10:51 am

SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@samanthathecherry, I partly agree!! It was kind of annoying me how Katniss was mostly unconscious when important things happened and then woke up in hospital and summarised what she’d been told… Happened WAY too much. I think the climax was meant to be when she was to execute Snow, but it over too quickly to sink in. That’s me anyway…

@rokku, I agree!!!! Had to reread things to get their full effect. Like Finnick’s death. And that brief sentence at the end about Finnick and Annie having a baby… Where did that even come from??????!

ALSO, feel like we’re still left wondering about Madge and why exactly she gave Katniss the pin. I guess we’ll never know what her intentions were and if there was an ulterior motive.

Overall, I still loved it! I think the fact that it didn’t end the way people wanted it to, and that it wasn’t this perfect ‘Happily ever after’ tale made it more ‘real’ in a sense. Especially the irony of Prim dying when this whole thing started from trying to protect her. Leaves everyone wondering if it was really worth it.

Ive read mortal instruments and i liked the firs tine but not the second 2 and really not the last one. Im not going to read the rest of the series.
B ut i thought mocking jay waa pretty good. It’s just that everyone had different things they wanted to happen and sc can’t satisfy e eryone. I didn’t cry, i almost never cry in books, but i w as pretty darn close. SPOILER! Did anyone else feel bad for the prep team? And how they were getting weird lookspoor Octavia “it’s meant to be pretty” that made me sad. But then poor prim….and fin nick….and we never got an explanation for cinna!!!! Bu t overall i loved it.

by MJ on August 27 - 2:26 pm

okay so i needed a place to say my thoughts about mockingjay, so here goes: (SPOILERS OBVIOUSLY :P )

Did anyone feel a little empty in the end? I was team Gale since hunger games and i’m fine with her choosing peeta, but i think gale didn’t get the ending that he deserved. He was by katniss’ side since they were young and he helped her grow. And all she could say was that he was in district 2, probably kissing some other girl?! I get that she is emotionally hurt and won’t forgive gale for what happened with prim, but i thought there should have been a formal goodbye. I just don’t feel closure yet. Besides that, im glad katniss chose peeta because only they would understand how each other feels. Obviously gale has known katniss since she was a child, but peeta made a bigger impact on her. They are both damaged and they need each other for consolation. Another thing that bothered me was that she ended up having kids, which she stated she would NEVER do. But I realized at the end that she felt okay with doing the one thing she feared most; having kids in the messed up world she lived in. She felt closure. Just my opinion though :)

by Mrs. Peeta Mellark13 on August 27 - 2:51 pm

“As I drift off, I try to imagine that world, somewhere in the future, with no Games, no Capitol. A place like the meadow in the song I sang to Rue as she died. Where Peeta’s child could be safe.”
i think that quote right there proves she wanted a child with peeta, as long as there were no Games, or capitol.

@audrey, i definitely don’t think that prim dying defeats the purpose of the book because no matter how hard you try to save the ones you love, you can’t change the inevitable. And I think that’s what SC was trying to tell us.

It is sad that Katniss didn’t end up with Gale. But we are so clueless to what he is actually doing in district 2. I mean I really wanted Katniss to end up with Gale but because she did go for Peeta, I at least wanted Gale to go with Madge. Poor Madge :-(

@MPM13 I think When Your Gone is the best out of the two. It fits Katniss’s love to Peeta.

Oh and I also liked Still Alive. I thought of Prim. :(

@Lindsay. Ya I know. I don’t get it. Gale gives katniss the arrow and never sees her again??????? What does happen to Gale in District 2. I don’t get that. There should be a novella on that too. haha ;)

yea, they should. but i think gale walked away because of what happened with prim. maybe he felt guilty cuz it might have been his bomb.

@MPM13 OHHH!!! haha didn’t think of that.

I think When I Look at You would be great. What if it wasn’t in the Last Song though? Do you think it would be good for Mockingjay? I do.

So didn’t anyone else felt like it came full circle with Katniss and Peeta burning in the end?
In all the books fire is such a big concept. I mean Katniss is “The girl on fire”! And then in the end she REALLY is “The girl on fire”. Her (and Peeta’s) whole body burned except for her face..
I think that was really clever on SC part. I loved it..

And I agree with everyone that the ending made me feel really hollow. It was like Katniss and Peeta were broken beyond repair and were holding on to eachother.. I liked that but there are still so many quistions unanswered and I really HATED that Finnick died. If I had to describe Mockingjay in one word it would be “Tragic”.. Such a sad ending *sigh*

by Audrey on August 27 - 4:56 pm

@SEM EXACTLY how I feel.

When Peeta was beaten on camera I was like ‘what the heck? Is this really happening?’

Then when Finnick died I was shocked. The dude just got married! (I laughed soooo hard when katniss told him about the trident)

Then when Prim died I bawled right on the spot.

I love this song! You did the best rendition I’ve heard so far. There is one tiny problem. You skipped a verse. Yeah. I’d appreciate it if you did another song, maybe just splicing in the missing verse or something. Too bad I can’t get it on my iPod!

Mockingjay was EPIC.

great job! but OMG! i need someone to talk to i thnk my mom thinks i’m crazy. i’m yelling and crying all at the same time. and i’m in the middle btw….i’m so scared for these characters i just love em’ so much. and peeta? pooor peeta he doesnt’t remember loving Katniss WTH capitol. ughhh! and gale?! why is he so darn sweet! and finnick gosh i love him. him and annie are too cute when they see each other again……o pls someone tell me i’m not crazy.

CRAPPY ENDING. Like wtf? Just kill everyone, will you? And Peeta’s insane and then bam, he’s just fine and in love again? And Gale just ditches? In the ending, Katniss just turns into Bella, a whiney girl who needs help.
