Mockingjay is the third book in The Hunger Games Trilogy.
So Katniss has survived the games.. again. Only 3 victors were rescued from the arena after Katniss blew it up - Finnick, Beetee, and Katniss, but Peeta and many others weren't one of them. They were captured by the Capitol. There is no more District 12 as it was destroyed, but Katniss' family & Gale are safe. They've escaped to District 13.
They are now in District 13, where they are hiding underground.
Katniss is now the symbol of rebellion against the Capitol. She now has to star in commercials for the rebel's side. When Peeta was in the Capitol, they made him do an interview. Beetee managed to gain control of the broadcast and show it to Katniss and a few of the other rebels. She is relieved that he is safe - until he sends them a message that the Capitol is going to attack, which breaks into chaos. The camera is not on Peeta anymore, but on the floor, where blood splatters can be seen, and screams can be heard. Peeta is being tortured in the Capitol.
They evacuate the upper levels in result of the bombing threat, and go down to the bunkers. The bombing starts, and they wait several days until the bombing as stopped.
Then, Katniss realizes it. The Capitol is using Peeta and every time she says something against them, they hurt Peeta.
The next day, people send a rescue team to get Peeta, because they know it is worrying her too much and she wouldn't be able to do anything without knowing that he is safe.
When Peeta is rescued, Katniss goes to hug him. To everyone's surprise, Peeta tries to choke Katniss. The Capitol has hijacked Peeta into thinking that he hates Katniss.
They build a squad to go out to kill President Snow. Katniss is included in this, but Peeta was included in it too at the last minute. They believe that he was sent so that he could kill Katniss.
Will Katniss and Peeta ever go back to lovers? Or will someone die as a result? Will they fulfill their goal of killing President Snow, or will anybody else die because of Katniss' mistake in the arena in the first games? Read the book to find out!
I. Loved. This. Book. I loved the storyline/plot. I loved the character's chemistry between each other. I loved everything about this book! It is a little confusing, but if you re-read it you'll definitely get it the second time.
