MockingJay
3 min read
***************************************THIS HAS SOME SPOILER************************************
****************************************READ AT YOUR OWN RISK***********************************
****************************************YOU'VE BEEN WARNED**************************************
I've been waiting since April for the new Suzanne Collins novel, MockingJay. The final book in her 'The Hunger Games' trilogy. I have finished the book, and now I want to die. I feel as if I just want to sit and cry for days.
The book was utterly fantastic. A lot of things got thrown in that I was not expecting. I could not put this book down.
But in all books, there is going to be something you don't like, right? I mean, for starters, she pulled a 'Rowling', by saying this she pilled about 80% of my favorite characters, who one (I will not give names,) got married, and you find out at the end has a baby. I mean, come ON!
Strike one,
Then there is Peeta. I was hopping, praying for some romantic thing with him and Katniss, and I sort of got it…kind of. I mean I loved it, I really, really, did. But I was annoyed that she couldn't just fucking see that she loved him when everyone else could clearly see it. And the littlest actions that she did, like taking out the pearl and holding it, breaking down in Haymitch's arms after the District 13 bombing. Just, come on Katniss.
Strike two.
Oh, and Peeta going crazy, it just, hurt to read it, I mean; he was this awesome character, so charismatic, so Peeta. Then the stupid Capitol does messed up shit to him, making the poor boy crazy! God, I hate life.
Strike three (and 2832642783627e46 because I love Peeta).
I did like how the whole book was so dark, and disturbing, and (A part near the end) ironic. It was so good, it really, really was. But I now feel, as though all the happiness in the world is gone, and yes, I think I am being melodramatic, but it's like, a Dementor is chilling in my bedroom saying "Ha ha! I'm not going to let you be happy!"
I feel so drained.
I get way to involved with book characters, I try to get in their mind set, to get their feelings, though half the time I just think "Fuck you, I like this way better." And a lot of times I did think "Fuck, Katniss! What the hell." But right when I hit part 3 hell, even in part two, I knew I was going to be in 'I'm saying in sweat pants and a sweater ALL day tomorrow…until four o'clock…when I have friends coming over…who will not understand my pain, because they haven't finished reading the fucking book yet…gah…"
God, I feel so drained.
Like I said, book was fantastic, it was so bittersweet.
So real, so bittersweet,
It shows war is bad; war fucks with your mind.
Even when the war is done, you are completely changed. You will never be the same, no matter how hard you try. You can pick up the pieces of your life, and try to put them back together, but, there will still be cracks.
God, this book made me so depressed.
God, I want to read it again.
Strike three.
PS. God, I knew Gale was an ass but REALLY?!
Fuck!

This journal comes to you in three parts:
1. I was bored…this morning (since I was writing this at about 2AM) I guess I would say, since I couldn't fall asleep. I was felt wide awake surfing the internet and reading the back of my book. I always like to read the reviews they have on the back, it's usually other author reviews so I like to see if I know the author, most of the time I do, other's I don't. But there would be some reviews were I'll just stare at it thinking "Really?"
If you've heard of the book Generation Dead (I believe that's the title, I am away from my basement cave of books so I can't check it) by…the name escapes me, then you've must of read the back review saying how this author's writing was a mix of John Green and Stephanie Meyer. I for one was deeply annoyed by this.
1) As a proud nerd fighter, I am a huge John Green fan. I find his books fantastic ( Will Grayson, Will Grayson FTW) I've read his books and this Generation Dead book…no way can you say there writing is similar. I could be saying this because I didn't really enjoy Generation Dead (Less fluff, more Zombie's eating brains please). Other than that, nerds for the win. Zombies who want to feel love…mah.
2) Comparing John Green to Stephanie Meyer is like comparing a unicorn to a pile of lawn clippings. Or comparing Stephanie Meyer to JK Rowling, I'm sorry Madam Glitter brains, you do not compare to them, not even close. I will forever love the boy with the scare; he doesn't oil your windows and watch you in your sleep (That I know off…).
There was this book I saw at the Coles in my local mall, I believe it was called 'The Prophecy' or something along the lines of that. Well the plot idea was good, first chapter was good too. Then I got to the back review "It was like I've asked Stephen King and Stephanie Meyer to write a novel together and I got this." I don't think you could EVER get Stephen King to write a novel with Stephanie Meyer. They would fight over on how the vampires should be evil and murderess or good and sparkly. Why are all new authors compared to her?
2. I'm sure everyone has heard of The Hunger Games, right? (Mocking Jay midnight relies party anyone?) My friend from school got me to read them a while back ago and now I can say I'm hopelessly obsessed over them. I mean it's sad; I ordered a District 12 t-shirt and can go on for a rant about why Peeta is amazing. But when, when, are they casting the damn movie?! I don't really care who's in it (Robert Downey JR for Haymich please) but as long as they are not from Twilight I am happy (Also no Emily Browning).
3. FAN EXPO! I've never been, but my father's girlfriend went last year with her cousin and said it was cool and that she wants to take me this year, so I went to the website to see who the guests are going to be this year. I think I've died, and gone to heaven. For starters, Kelly Armstrong, author of the Darkest Powers series is going to be there, did I motion she is my writing god? Her writing just flows together so nicely, I've teaching myself better grammar from her books. So when I saw her name I just thought to myself Holy hippogriff, I have to go. Then I strolled down the list some more, Spike from Buffy The Vampire Slayer is going to be there, Felicia Days from The Guild, A couple of voice actors from Full Metal Alchemist and Death Note are going to be there too. If I don't go to this, I think my soul is going to die.
Final note: "Harry Potter is about confronting fears, finding inner strength and doing what is right in the face of adversity. Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend." -Stephen King Oh I love you Stephen King (:
Far well readers!
I less then three you all.
