I liked the third book up until about 2/3 of the way through. Then it just completely ran out of steam for me. I blame the insistance on having exactly 27 chapters divided into three nine-chapter "acts" for that. It really felt to me like "well, let's just hurry up and tie this all up." Only for me, it wasn't tied up, and it didn't fit with the rest of the trilogy. It felt to me like "Oh, another character we (and Katniss) care about dead. Oh well, too bad, move along, we have a schedule to keep."
Can you tell I was really disappointed in the end?
