It's still my favorite out of the three, but I can see why many were disappointed with it. I absolutely hate endings where everything is wrapped up, very forcefully I might add, at the end.

Sure I would have like if Katniss would have to go through all this pain but I always thought the ending (including epilogue) was quite fitting. a massive happy ending would have been out of place.<br /><br /><a href="http://endlesslybookish.blogspot.com/2011/10/top-ten-tuesday-8.html" rel="nofollow">My TTT post</a>Nonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06637766497397710459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-120760076447564855.post-65173850695859901792011-10-04T10:37:21.500-04:002011-10-04T10:37:21.500-04:00Great list and I agree with Harry Potter 5!
