Yeah, I totally wasted my time reading this one. The Hunger Games, after a couple chapters was all propulsive momentum, momentum, momentum. It's sequels have been anything but, and they've been boring because of it. Katniss is a strong-willed, smart character, but she does and says some dumb shit in the service of plot.
If you paid attention to the first book, you knew Katniss was ending up in District 13 at some point. Kudos to Collins for making District 13 anything but what fans would have expected. End of Kudos.
Just don't read the end. Just don't. Spoilers! It's not that it's anti-climactic (it is), or that it kills off a character (it does) that you should love (you don't). It's just how it happens and is executed that will make you so mad. End Spoilers!
