 Um, however many hours later, I'm done.  Finished.  I have many, many thoughts.  For the first time, I am glad my surgery left me with energy for little else but reading, as it afforded me a great excuse to sit and read today.

Warning: there is a lot of CAPSLOCK and flaily hands in the rest of this post.

I just finished reading it and am not ashamed to say I'm in tears. I too did not see the Prim death coming at all. I kept waiting for Peeta to round the corner, and even when I could feel the pages winding down I was so anxious to see how it would all wrap up. In fact I was hoping that I would get to the end and there would be one big to be continued even though I knew the trilogy would wrap up.

I love that Collins is so brutal. Hell, the entire premise of these books is beyond and I think that's why I love them so much. I was, if forced to choose, on Team Peeta before Mockingjay but to me it was obvious from the very beginning of this book that Katniss couldn't choose Gale. Too many comments.

Oh, Katniss. What a wonderful, flawed, brave, loving character.
