Yep, I was one of those crazy people who signed up 6 months ago to get one of the first copies of Mockingjay. I cruised into my library yesterday, checked it out, and then finished it up this afternoon. I've gotta say, I was super pleased with how this book wrapped up. I have to be honest though....I really wished a few things would have turned out differently.

**spoiler alert** Don't read any farther if you plan on reading this book and don't want to know what happens.

I wish that she would have developed Katniss's feelings for Peeta a bit more. It seemed like she made her decision pretty quickly. It was like, "Well...I decided I had enough fire for the both of us...I need a dandelion." Huh. Then Gale just kind of disappeared at the end. I wanted to know what happened to him...what HIS feelings were...

I was glad that we were privy to Katniss's future though ~ her children, that she loved Peeta...that was nice. I also was really bummed that Prim died. Was anyone else surprised that she even killed off ~ oh what's his name....Annie's husband ~ the one with the trident....crud. I can't remember his name. I will have to add that later if I remember to. I thought that at least HE would make it.

Oh, and I was so glad that she shot Coin. Buh. Bye. I never trusted that woman.
All in all....SUCH a good book.
