Mockingjay

So this wasn't my favorite. I do, however, like the ending of the trilogy with respect to the plot arc across the books. Jacob pointed out that Collins, like Rowling in the later Harry Potter books, excels at writing with the voice of a sullen teenager. That's a great quality in a YA writer, obviously, but it left me spending a lot of this book waiting for Katniss to...grow up. And then she did, just a little too quickly in a somewhat rushed denouement. Still, I'd recommend the series to anyone looking to become obsessed with the outcomes in a fictional world for a few days/weeks, or wanting to dive right into some pop culture without regretting it later.
