The book I’m reading is called Mocking Jay, it is the third and final book the Hunger Games series. I read the first two books in the trilogy, “The Hunger Games”, and “Catching Fire”. I really liked those books so I continued to read the series. Katniss Everdeen is the main character all three books, and some others are, Peeta, Gale, Haymitch and many more. So far, Mocking Jay has been pretty good, it’s a bit different than the first two books though. I think the story will get more interesting as I get closer to the climax.
what book is your favorite? lots of people like catching fire
Yeah I know, but it’s hard to decide!! I like the first two the best but I can’t choose one of them! :s
