I was prepared to receive a slap. Mockingjay I knew was going to be uncompromising. The characters are manhandled different. So, yeah, sure, I'm taking full figure. And I have all cashed, admirably, as properly stoic. After all, war is declared. There will be losses, sacrifices, handling and shameless ambition. All revelations that most horrible one another. The power of images, outbidding in violence, the madness of the media. It's heavy, in many ways.
Yet through the pages, I felt dizzy, bitter and somewhat betrayed. Collins turned her characters, she was without Pite so much so that the reader will feel disoriented. Katniss here shows a strong and fragile heroine, but more on the ropes, with moods and a ras-le-bol we share willingly. She is conscious of being a pawn in the hands of District 13, is staging plays its role but one feels so tired, so little itself. More too the Girl on Fire, except at one point, during a rather painful scene, and one lives as an alibi.
Gale finally reveals himself and seems true to itself: a loyal personality, a real rebel who no longer accept the dictatorship and is ready to take up arms. It is also an exemplary friend, safe and comforting value. It will be displayed, to elbow, also fight to prove its legitimacy, but resign themselves to face. Always. Frankly I was touched by it. However, all my attention was focused Peeta. Knowing his fate at the end of Catching Fire, the expectations were numerous. Regardless, I will not say more, but I felt deceived.
Obviously, I was not looking marshmallow. Simply, the love Peeta was beautiful, tender and pure. It was too much, perhaps. For Collins used it against him. The war is still good, I found that this reversal about Peeta was a little too harsh.
In fact, everything is explained in this book. Everything is perfectly logical, even if it hurts, even if in the end everything seems long, languid and rather funereal. This is also the little music of the book, we find in these few words employed by Katniss to speak for itself: "Trapped for days, years, centuries maybe Dead, but not allowed to die.. Alive goal as good as dead. So alone That anyone, no matter how loathsome anything Would Be welcome. "
No, it's not gay! I had started a series that was meant sensational, unexpected, shocking, rich and captivating. It ends on a note of sadness and bittersweet lucidity. Collins overwhelms the leaders of war but stressed that the lessons taught by history are too quickly forgotten. "Now we're fait que sweet period Where everyone Chartered That our recent horrors shoulds never be repeated. Goal collective thinking is usually short-lived. We're fickle, stupid Beings with poor memories and a great gift for self-destruction." She had no ambition to write a trifle sentimental, predictable and clean. We understood this well! (If you doubt it, go your way.)
Great sadness, therefore, and bitterness, but this series will forever remain one of the finest literary revelations. She was able to procure happiness and suffering, I was quite baffled and stunned more than once, now it loop abrupt and painful way. We do not spell unscathed, but that's part of the game.
May the odds be ever in your favor!
