Mockingjay


I recently went to the theaters and saw Catching Fire. It was amazing. I thought that this was better than the first movie. It also resembled the book a lot. I talked to a bunch of people and they all agreed. I was very fond of the way it ended and right away I wanted to know what was going to happen next. So I got the next book and got started. This next book is Mocking jay. I have heard that this book was good but not as good as the other two. But hopefully it turns out to be better. This book starts off right where the second one ended. In the beginning it talks about how they destroyed her hometown of district 12 and that she was going to district 13. I think that was messed up to destroy the city. So it also says that Peeta was MIA. Katniss sees what has happened to her home and is devastated. She thinks that all of this was her fault and begins to blame herself for this destruction especially because she had been warned by President Snow that her actions could cause the world chaos. She also misses Peeta and wishes he was there when she passes by his family’s bakery. At this point the mood is sad and upsetting. But anyways Katniss is brought to district 13 to lead the revolution. I was shocked by this when it happened because in the books previous it did give clues that this would happen and I guess I did not pick this up right away. But I think it is great and needed to happen. Katniss is the perfect leader for a revolution because people have already started to gain hope and believe again that they can make a difference and change things. I have gotten about a quarter of the book done and I can’t wait to read more of it.
