Mockingjay--page 113. The final book in the Hunger Games trilogy, Mockingjay is good. Tense and powerful, but still a little slow, although no way near as slow as Catching Fire, which ironically only caught fire starting on page 270. Katniss is angry and desperate to save Peeta from the Capitol. Okay, that Gale/Katniss/Peeta love triangle is really confusing. It seems like she's in love with Peeta, but maybe that's just for the cameras always tracking her down. She says she chose Gale, but really? If Peeta and Katniss aren't in love, what do they have? An awkward relationsip. Whereas if Gale and Katniss aren't in love, they're still friends like they were from the beginning. I'm just hoping she choses Peeta. He's my favorite character.
Girls in Love--Sort of a background book. It should be an ALA Quick Pick/easy read. It's a typical girlish novel filled with appearances and typical tween situations. I enjoy it all the same. I never said I didn't like that.
