Release Date: August 24, 2010
Purchase: Amazon / Barnes and Noble
Synopsis:
My name is Katniss Everdeen.
Why am I not dead?
I should be dead.
Katniss Everdeen, girl on fire, has survived, even though
her home has been destroyed. Gale has escaped. Katniss’s family is safe. Peeta
has been captured by the Capitol. District 13 really does exist. There are rebels.
There are new leaders. A revolution is unfolding.
It is by design that Katniss was rescued from the arena in
the cruel ad haunting Quarter Quell, and it is by design that she has long been
part of the revolution without knowing it. District 13 has come out of the
shadows and is plotting to overthrow the Capitol. Everyone, it seems, has had a
hand in the carefully laid plans—except Katniss.
The success of the rebellion hinges on Katniss’s willingness
to be a pawn, to accept responsibility for countless lives, and to change the
course of the future of Panem. To do this, she must put aside her feelings of
anger and distrust. She must become the rebels’ Mockingjay—no matter what the
personal cost.
Why it's one of my Favorite Reads:
This book broke many hearts and broke my heart many times. I think it's the first YA book that made me cry. It definitely holds a special place in my heart!
