Ali I'm trying to figure out if characters in Catching Fire are flat or round characters. I know that Prim is a round character and Gale is most likely a flat character. I can't figure out what kind of character Katniss is, but I have a feeling she is a round character. What does everybody think?

Ali By the way, if anybody doesn't know this, a round character changes during the story and a flat character stays the same.


Elizabeth I haven't read the books, but I do know the story, and actually, I think Katniss is a flat character... from the beginning of the book, I can kind of see how she has leadership qualities that continue throughout the books...?


Aaron Chu-Carroll NO WAY!!!!! Katniss at the beginning was not a law-defier and would never even think about starting a rebellion!

Ali I see what you are saying... Katniss has always had the quality of being a leader but also, I think she changed a lot from the first Hunger Games. Do you understand what I'm saying?


message 6: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali Yeah I agree with Aaron completely, but she did defy the law every day by going to hunt in the woods. Although, Katniss would not have been able to start a rebellion!


Elizabeth That's true... she does change throughout the three books.

Ali But also, many of her character traits have stayed the same...


Christa Farris I think Katniss is a round character because in the beginning of the book she's very stubborn and independent but as the book progresses she becomes more open and shows a wider variety of traits.

Ali PEOPLE LOOK AT THIS DISCUSSION. IT IS VERY INTERESTING!!!!!!!!


Aaron Chu-Carroll Exactly


message 12: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali That's true


message 13: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali But I'm still not sure


message 14: by Jack (new)

Jack I agree with Christa


Christa Farris In the first book she is flat but after the first Hunger Games she changes and in the second book she becomes rounder.


message 16: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali I agree but she is still a bad listener, stubborn, and pretty independent. She also got more character traits but those are the most important one's. She has been like that since the beginning.


Elizabeth I think that throughout the games, she experiences suffering, and because of her suffering, she learns to endure and stay strong. I think this is what makes her change.


message 18: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali That's true but she suffered before the games. Her father dies when she is young and she almost starves to death before she learns to hunt...


message 19: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali During the games she felt a different kind of suffering


Elizabeth Ok, yeah. In that case, she learns to be truly independent


message 21: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali So I think I decided that Katniss is a round character. What character should we discuss next?


Christa Farris Yeah Katniss is round


Aaron Chu-Carroll Gail + his reaction to Peeta


message 24: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali Ok so I think that Gale is a flat but dynamic character.


message 25: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali He totally changed a little after the whole Peeta thing.


Christa Farris Gale is dynamic, but flat


message 27: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali KATNISS AND GALE FOREVER!!!!!!!


message 28: by Jack (new)

Jack Lol


message 29: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali Seriously, who doesn't love Gale?


message 30: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali I think he's the best character!


Christa Farris PEETA AND KATNISS ARE BETTER


Christa Farris After Mockingjay I don like Gale


Elizabeth That's true Peeta is a weirdo


Christa Farris *don´t


message 35: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali WHATTTTTTTTT


Elizabeth I ment its true that gale is the best character


message 37: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali HOW DO YOU NOT LIKE GALE?!?!


Elizabeth PEETA x KATNISS... no way.


message 39: by Ali (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ali Gale and Katniss are meant to be together!


Christa Farris NOOOOOO GALE DOES A FEW THINGS THAT MADE ME SO MAD

Kyle Chang Round characters have many traits while flat characters have few. It does not matter if they change.
