Repost

I just read Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins.  I finished it in September of 2010 and it has 390 pages.  It is the third and final book of the Hunger Games.  After the Quarter Quell and after District 12 gets destroyed, Katniss Everdeen, a victor in the Hunger Games, gets shipped off to District 13 which had just recently been discovered.  Now the districts are at war with the capitol.  Will Katniss get revenge of President Snow?  And will her love and best friend Peeta ever be the same?
I think the author wrote this book and this series because she wanted to show kids how you can't give up.  It gets boring for a really long chunk of time sometimes, but once it gets exciting, it's really exciting and suspenseful.  For example, when Katniss and her friends were running through the underground tunnel, it was just telling about how they found their hiding spot.  But eventually, some mutations started calling Katniss's name and you wondered how she was gonna get out.
I would recommend this book to 9 year olds and up and anyone who has a lot of time...because you won't be putting this book down!
