Ok today we'll be reading Chapter 9.. Chapter 8 wasn't such a good chapter.. it was pretty much pretty boring.. Katniss just whines how nervous she is about getting arrested or killed for trying to hurt the Game Makers but in the end she gets an 11/12.

haha i liked it! wasn't that boring at all

There mentor really annoys me!I love how Katniss and Peeta have a connection because even if they never were friends he will always be the boy who helped her out.
Its is disgusting how they try to dress up them up and have them be someone they are not all for entertainment!

"Haymitch: "You've got as much charm as a dead slug" --such a funny quote! At times, i find myself liking Haymitch. 2) Can't believe Effie is making Katniss worry about posture and walking in high heels when her life is at stake :O 3) Can't believe Peeta said he loves Katniss! I like them as friends yet not as lovers..if Gale said that on the other hand things owuld be different ;)

She helps Katniss with her walk because she wants Katniss to make a good impression with the audience so that she will get sponsors. More sponsors, better chances. This is the best Effie can do for Katniss.
Haymitch tries to make his contribution.. but his best isn't really working for Katniss. Haymitch wants Katniss to hide her attitude but that's really what the people want to see.
The first time I read the end of the chapter, I was kind of like "WHJATWIEOGHh"$@#(HG?!" And then I read it again and I was like "Of course. Duh he's in love with her."
When I read the Hunger Games the first time I wasn't quite sure if Peeta was really a sick mastermind plotting to win or a dude hopelessly in love.

I guess! She just bothers me so much! Have you seen the picture of he rin the movie??
Ehh I'm not a Peeta fan at all! He's ok but I just don't him with Katniss AT ALL. She just uses him which is horrible.

You can go at your own pace :)

Chapters 10-11: Peeta's interview plays them as the "Romeo and Juilet", star-crossed lovers.. Kinda cute except Katniss doesn't really like Peeta. The Games Begin Katniss goes all ninja to get one of the packs. 11 die on the 1st day.. a shocking thing is how Peeta seems to have an alliance with the careers! This is where the action and suspense :) Everything else before this is fluff compared to the Games
I'm not really sure where we are since i read ahead but i'm loving all of the action! rue is simply amazing and I can't wait to see her in action in the movie! anyone else think the name Glimmer is kind of cool?
: This chapter was ok.. Katniss searches for water and she finds out Peeta is working with the tributes :)
Only chapter in any of the three books where I really hated Peeta.

later on he does do something very remarkable which at the moment made me really like him..

I love Peeta :) Totally sisterly way, though.

Chapter 13- There will be fire.. setting the Girl Who Was on Fire in a panic, there will be a meeting between the Careers and Katniss. Rue will make an appearance

they were an alliance until of course it was just them and then they would have to kill each other which is just horrible :O I wish she lived!

Why make an alliance with someone you have to kill in the end? you will only grow attached and then its going to get difficult to end their life.
Yeah me too..its really sad.
Oh boy, i forgot this was a chapter a day challenge and i ended up reading all the three books in four days...*hides*
