Mockingjay

This book illustrates the toll war can have on people, especially when governments lose site of caring for people. Not just their own, but others. It's so easy to take an us vs them perspective and see the citizens as a reflection of the government that rules them.

This is a dark book. I didn't find the story all that enjoyable because of how horrible the events are. It does show in the end that fighting for what you believe is super hard. Especially when you've been lied to for a long time or are only given certain truths in certain light.

I'm not sure I'll come back to this one, but it did get me thinking.
