Review: Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars 

*SPOILER ALERT!*

I thoroughly enjoyed the first two books in The Hunger Games trilogy, and was eager to start on the final instalment. Catching Fire ended with the cliffhanger that there is now no district twelve and there were a lot of questions left unanswered.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars 

*SPOILER ALERT!*

After thoroughly enjoying The Hunger Games I had high expectations for reading the sequel, Catching Fire. The Hunger Games ends with an unresolved love triangle and the hint of a looming revolution and I was curious to see how the next book would progress.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars 

*SPOILER ALERT!*

There has been so much hype about The Hunger Games that I wanted to read it myself to see what all the fuss was about. I enjoy dystopian fiction so I was hoping that it would live up to the good reviews I have read.

I have to apologise for being absent from the blogging scene for almost a whole month. Unfortunately I don't really have a great excuse, other than that I was lost in several new obsessions, including The Hunger Games. I went to see the movie last week and it re-ignited my hunger for the books. I thought the casting was brilliant-Jennifer Lawrence is so strong and striking, Rue was just how I imagined her and Lenny Kravitz was an unexpected choice for Cinna but he was just gorgeous!
