Mocking Jay

I am now reading the book Mocking Jay by Suzanne Collins. I am about half way through the book and right now Katniss is in District Two. She is in this district to mourn over Peeta's condition. She has just gotten shot. Right now I totally hate this book! it is so frustrating when a character you like so much gets hurt or changes. This is what happened to Peeta. He doesn't know who he is.


I think the Suzanne Collins wrote this book because it is part of a series and she needed to finish how the Capital falls. I believe the theme of the book is dedication. Katniss dedicates herself to the rebellion and she dedicates her self to help Peeta remember what he had forgotten. My favorite character is Peeta because he is so strong and he truly loves Katniss and tries to protect her even though he is being tortured. He has grown in many ways. His love for Katniss grows stronger as well as his intelligence. He learns many things when because tortured. He sees the war from a third person view and sees what the outcome may be from both sides.


"There won't be enough of us left to keep going. If everybody doesn't lay down there weapons-- and I mean, as in very soon-- its all over, anyway." This is when Peeta, who is stuck at theCapital, explains on television how with out a cease-fire everyone may die and the human race would not be able to survive. This so cool because he is so smart to say this because it is a very important thing to consider. One of the main questions I would have for the author is why she made Peeta forget he is such a great character, why destroy him. I would also like top know why she makes Gale so easy to hate?
