"Mockingjay" by Suzanne Collins

I am about half way through the book Mockingjay and I can finally say I am obsessed. I'm going to be completely honest...I have never really enjoyed reading. I think it's because I just have not found the right book. Well, I can gladly say that I found a great book and I'm really enjoying it. In the past few chapters there have been a few very important lines. At the end of chapter 12 it says, "My lips are just forming his name when his fingers lock around my throat." (Collins 177) This is Katniss talking and if you haven't read the book, then you would be very very surprised as to who the one choking her is. Now, I am not going to say who it is so there are no spoilers, but this line is very important because it changes peoples perspective on the character who is choking Katniss. It definitely changed mine, and the line also pushes the plot along. The next most important line ends chapter 14. "This is one of his death traps." (Collins 203) This is an important line because it basically is starting the next war era of the book. And this new era is what is pushing the plot along. The line is talking about Gales plan against the capitol that has many lives at risk. Katniss calls it inhumane. You will have to read the book to find out the plan, but in my opinion, it is indeed very inhumane. That's unfortunately all I have for you today. I hope your enjoying these posts and I also hope I'm getting you really interested to read Mockingjay.

  2. I have to agree with the fact that it starts out pretty interesting, but I would have to say it is the worst of the three. It's confusing and really boring at parts. But keep reading to get the whole story~
