The best part of the book is when Peeta convinces Katniss that she should keep on going, and Katniss only believes Peeta rather than the others because his reason is the most convincing. In the text, it says, Cressida and Gale go round and round trying to convince me. Pollux nods at their words to back them up. Only Peeta doesnt offer an opinion. What do you think, Peeta? I finally ask him. I think you still have no idea. The effect you can have. He slides his cuffs up the support and pushes himself to a sitting position. None of the people we lost were idiots. They knew what they were doing. They followed you because they believed you could really kill Snow. I dont know why his voice reaches me when no one elses can. But if hes right, and I think he is, I owe the others a debt that can only be repaid in one way. I pull my paper map from my pocket in my uniform and spread it out on the floor with new resolve. Where are we, Cressida? I recommend this book to adventure and action lovers. The message of Mocking Jay is very important to middle school students. So often, students give up on things if they dont get it on their first try and dont realize that they can retry to achieve it. It is good to read a book in which the main character is motivated to carry on and to not give up. In the text, it says, Down in the cellar I pace back and forth, driving the others crazy. Something tells me that not taking advantage of the flood of refugees is a mistake. What better cover could we have? On the other hand, every displayed person milling about on the streets means another pair of eyes looking for five rebels on the loose. Then again, what do we gain by staying here? All were really depleting our small cache of food and waiting forwhat? The rebels to take the Capitol? It would be weeks before that happens, and Im not sure what Id do if they did. Not run out and greet them. Coin would have me whisked back to 13 before I could say nightlock, nightlock, nightlock. I did not come all this way, and lose all those people, to turn myself over to that woman. I kill Snow. The part where she is debating symbolizes that she doesnt want to give up. At the end, I expected Katniss to be with her whole family and her life be back normal again. Loosing Prim and her mom being away caused the very opposite. Also, the ending seemed so hasty. Hopefully middle school students will read this book and understand that you should never give up.
