Peeta looks me right in the eye and gives my hand what I think is meant to be a reassuring squeeze. Maybe… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Whose is it, do you think?" I say finally. "No telling," says Finnick. "Why don't we let Peeta claim it, since he… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image

So Haymitch, what do you think of the games have one hundred percent more competitors than usual?” asks Caesar. Haymitch shrugs. “I… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I knew it. In this way, Peeta's not hard to predict. While I was wallowing around on the floor of that cellar,… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Although who knows? Maybe this will be it, Katniss." "What?" I ask. "The time it sticks. Maybe we are witnessing the evolution… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Now he's [Cinna] arranging things around my living room: Clothing, fabrics, and sketchbooks with designs he's drawn. I pick one up and… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image

You would think after all the hours I’d spent with Gale– watching him talk and laugh and frown– that I would know… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I think of the snarling, cruel exchange back on the hovercraft. The bitterness that followed. But all I say is "I can't… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I'm relieved Peeta's alive. I tell myself again that if I get killed, his winnings will benefit my mother and Prim the… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
You're punishing him over and over for things that are out of his control. Now, I'm not saying you shouldn't have a… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Then I know Prim is right, that Snow cannot afford to waste Peeta's life, especially now, while the Mockingjay causes so much… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Finally, Peeta turns to Pollux. "Well, then you just became our most valuable asset." Castor laughs and Pollux manages a smile. We're… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I think about going to the lake, but I'm so weak that I barely make it to my meeting place with Gale.… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
The air's warm with hopeful hints of spring in it. Spring would be a good time for an uprising, I think. Everyone… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I wonder how she'll make up her mind." "Oh, that I do know." I can just catch Gale's last words through the… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
You’re not leaving me here alone,” I say. Because if he dies, I’ll never go home, not really. I’ll spend the rest… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
So that's who Finnick loves, I think. Not his string of fancy lovers in the Capitol. But a poor, mad girl back… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
In that one slight motion, I see the end of hope, beginning of destruction of everything I hold dear in the world.… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
You can tell by the way the girls whisper about him when he walks by in school that they want him. It… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
That's right. Who am I thinking of? Oh, I know. It's Cinna who likes you. But that's mainly because you didn't try… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Is that why you hate me?" I ask. "Partly," She admits. "Jealousy is certainly involved. I also think you're a little hard… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
So, here’s what you do. You win, you go home. She can’t turn you down then, eh?” says Caesar encouragingly. “I don’t… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I know we promised Haymitch, we'd do exactly what they said, but I don't think he considered this angle.' 'Where is Haymitch,… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
But I have to confess, I'm glad you two had at least a few months of happiness together." I'm not glad," says… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
Let them go, I tell myself. Say good-bye and forget them. I do my best, thinking of them one by one, releasing… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
When I ask Plutarch about his absence, he just shakes his head and says, "He couldnt face it." "Haymitch? Not able to… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image

What do I mean when I say I love Gale? I don't know. I did kiss him last night, in a moment… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
It's amazing to see things that are suggested in the book fully developed and so brilliantly realized through the artistry of the designers. — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
A furious Peeta hammers Haymitch with the atrocity he could become party to, but I can feel Haymitch watching me. This is the moment,… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
“The same goes for the other captured tributes, Johanna and Enobaria.” — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
I don't know how to say it exactly. Only...I want to die as myself. Does that make any sense?' he asks. I shake my… — Suzanne Collins Copy Share Image
