Mockingjay

I just finished the final book in The Hunger Games Series: Mockingjay. It was mainly about the districts in war with the Capital. The capital rescued certain people from the Catching Fire arena such as Peeta Mellark. The Capital tries to use Peeta against  Katniss who was currently in District thirteen, which is located underground. Thirteen rescued Beetee and Katniss from the arena. First, Katniss and her best friend from district twelve, Gale, go to District eight to see the wounded. While they are leaving the hospital, the capital drops more bombs, not knowing Katniss is there. Katniss is told to retreat through her earpiece but takes it off and tries to take down Capital hovercrafts. Gale joins her and they shoot down many; Katniss with her bow and arrow and Gale by her side. When the Capital retreats, Katniss and Gale go back to thirteen's hovercraft. Back at thirteen, a rescue group has just left to go save Peeta and Johanna Mason. Gale joined them and came back all alive with both Peeta and Johanna. Peeta has been tortured by the Capital with Tracker Jacker venom ( wasps) and is now hallucinating that everything bad that has happened to him is her fault. The biggest thing he blames on her was making the capital burn district twelve killing his family and friends. Thirteen cures Peeta while sending him to training for war with Johanna and Katniss. He has guards with him wherever he goes. The war begins and everyone in training goes to fight the Capital. The war goes on until there is a winner. You have to read the book to find out what happens to everyone.
