I'll keep this brief: The "Hunger Games" series is in part an adventure novel, but at heart I found it a coming-of-age story. Katniss Everdeen is a young woman who is used to responsibilities beyond her years. She encounters danger, horror, brutality, deceit, and also love. She is a very strong young woman... and faces the biggest crises of all in Book 3. Will the Mockingjay ever fly free, and if so, how?
****Mild spoiler alert *** I liked the ending, including the epilogue. If it seems depressing, that's because it isn't sugar-coated. But it is real. And it is ultimately as joy-filled as reality gets in a brutal world.
BTW, I read it all in one sitting. I couldn't put it down.
