Mockingjay
Many fans of Suzanne Collins’ “Hunger Games” series have probably already finished Mockingjay, the series’ third and final installment that released on Tuesday, but we’ve collected some reviews anyway. In the series’ third book, readers are taken to District 13, the underground city that houses the resistance movement. With a war against the Capitol looming, heroine Katniss Everdeen becomes the symbol of the uprising. However, she doesn’t know whom to trust, and she feels guilty about the destruction caused in the last games. She must protect herself, her mom, and her sister, and eventually choose between two loves. So far critics claim it’s just as complex and thrilling as the last two books, so get ready for some late nights reading. See below for full reviews, but be warned – some contain spoilers.
“Mockingjay won’t make much sense if you haven’t read The Hunger Games (2008) and Catching Fire (2009), but Collins’ fans, grown-ups included, will race to the end.” – Bob Minzeshelmer, USA Today
“Fans will be happy to hear that Mockingjay is every bit as complex and imaginative as Hunger Games and Catching Fire.” – Nicole Sperling, Shelf Life
“Difficult as it would seem to top the ingenuity and action-packed, edge-of-your-seat storyline of ‘The Hunger Games,’[...] ‘Mockingjay’ leaves the government’s kid-on-kid hunting grounds and heads into the destitute reality of the districts” – Susan Carpenter, Los Angeles Times
“Mockingjay is an explosive and emotionally turbulent conclusion to the Hunger Games trilogy.” – The Compulsive Reader
