Katniss and the rebels finally defeat President Snow and the Capitol. The war is over; but not before more lives were lost. President Coin, the president of District 13 had a bomb dropped that killed many innocent Capitol people along with some of the rebels and District 13 people, including Prim, Katniss's little sister. Katniss was granted the privilege to be the one to kill Snow' so one last time she puts on her Mockingjay suit and grabs her bow and arrow. She is standing in front of a crowd of people aiming at Snow, but at the last second she changes her mind and shoots Coin instead. Snow ended up dying anyway. Katniss, Haymitch, and Peeta go back to District 12 where it takes months for Katniss to somewhat recover and come out of her house. Gale gets a job in another district and her mother is starting a hospital in District 4.
I think I didn't like the ending because I was expecting a happy ending and it really wasn't....
I also started reading The Shining by Stephen King. I haven't gotten very far so there really isn't anything to summarize yet.
These first four pictures describe the end of Mockingjay.
 |
| President Snow has a strange obsession with white roses which affects Katniss throughout the end of the book. |
 |
| I picked this picture because during the war when the rebels were making their way to the Capitol there were a few explosions. |
 |
| On the way to the Capitol there were a lot of death traps (called 'pods') set up and they reminded me of what Jigsaw does in the Saw movies. |
 |
| Katniss's weapon of choice. |
The next picture pertains to "The Shining."
 |
| The Overlook Hotel in Colorado. (I think this is from the movie.) |
I read for 2 hours and 45 minutes this week.
Total time: 55 hours
