I didn't like the ending to the Mockingjay. I thought it was abrupt, like the author ran out of time before a deadline and stumbled quickly through the rest of the story. I did like the first two a lot though.

I'm reading Mockingjay right now. But I'm sure any ending will be better, in my eyes, than the ending to Breaking Dawn (which I thought was abrupt and like WTF was this).

I'm with adpi*violet. My sister recommended the series to me right before Mockingjay came out. Loved the first two books and couldn't wait to read the last. Unfortunately, the last book was poorly written and stumbled through several key plot points. My sister and I were very disappointed with the way it all ended but would still recommend the series.

Just finished Mockingjay. I guess my biggest complaint would be the whole Peeta and Katniss storyline. I love the ending with them but it was like "bam" here it is. I would have loved a bit more about them. But the reality is the story was over, the war was over. Either way I did enjoy the series, just like I didn't like the ending of Breaking Dawn, but love the series overall.

I didn't like how she finished the story of her sister, either. It was like, and so it is. Ta da. The Peeta storyline sucked. I wanted my Peeta from the first two books back. Totally agree about the Twilight series, too.

I missed the Peeta from the first two books as well. I wanted him back as well. He never truly got "better" and that kind of annoyed me.
