Mockingjay question

Ultimately, I think Prim's death was the most upsetting. Just the fact that Katniss originally volunteered for the Hunger Games to save Prim's life, only to have her die in the end was so heart-wrenching. Katniss suffered through so much and lost so many people because she had tried to keep her sister alive, and yet she lost Prim anyway.

Finnick and Rue's deaths were both heart-wrenching. Prim's would've been just as bad. But it was played out less dramatic I thought.

In the series, Finnick's , Prim's and Rue's death left me with a heart ache that was almost unbearable .
Was really depressing !

Prim, hands down! That was the main person Katniss wanted to protect from the beginning. Rue & Finnick of course but ultimately her sister's death was the saddest and most shocking to me.

I mean, Prim's death is pretty much what ruined Katniss, so Prim's death. Don't get me wrong, I felt so sad when the Rue, Finnick, Cinna and the others died too, but still, the most upsetting is Prim's.

Finnick, I still can't believe he's dead.

I think Prim’s death was the most heart retching! Rue’s, Finnick’s, and Cinna’s deaths were all really sad, but when Katniss yells at Prim’s cat, saying that she isn’t coming back, it was so sad. And the fact that it was a bomb from district thirteen makes it worse. All though I see why Suzanne Collins made her die, if she didn’t then Katniss would not have killed President Coin. And she needed to kill President Coin because President Coin just wanted power and it would have gone to her head, so she wouldn’t have been better that President Snow!!! I think when Prim dies it is the worst because Katniss sacrificed so much for Prim and then she dies. It completely destroys Katniss.

Finnick: he was so gorgeous so loving and caring so innocent
Prim: she the reason katniss sacrifised her whole live....it was all to save prim and now she sdead.... Katniss screwed up her whole live just to save that little sister of her and now shes dead.....katniss will have nightmares for ever and ever she'll never be the same and now the reason she did that is gone for ever and ever
Cinna: he was so innocent and loving towards katniss unlike all the other capiol people he felt katniss' pain and did all he can to make her conident and strong.....o what that man could do with a needle and swarn and now hes dead because of snow
Rue: she was so happy and full of live like a dandellion in the spring her death was dewestating and so uneeded...she saved katniss' live and now shes dead

And why did gale just leave katniss....he was her hunting partner her companion the one that gave her food and company from 12 years old he bassicly saved her llive. And wheres katniss' mother her inly family left to support her now she lost her father sister mother stylist allies hunting partner. Suzanne collins pleaaaase write another book cause this one was shit. Oooo and fuck you president snow go to hell!!!!

When Rue & Katniss paired up I was panicked. I understood the rules -- only one. So, throughout that part I just kept thinking, "If it ends with Katniss having to kill Rue or even hints at it going that way."

I had to read the death twice because for me. It was I knew that the only way for Katniss not to end up killing her was that she would have to die somehow. But good lord!

I found the part where Katniss mourning over Rue the worst. Even in the movie --- though I was prepared for the death scene because I read the book.


For me, emotionally Rue's was sad, Prim's angered me. hers for me demonstrated the anger/hate that a person can have messes with not just your enemies but also those that you love. And, that the reason the idea even was around..ugh.

I'd say that Rue was the saddest. Prim's wasn't that sad because it happened so fast. I think Finnick came in second.

Gah! This is a big one. Understand that this is one of my typical teenager rants.

RUE: I HAD TO READ THE SENTENCE A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE I FINALLY UNDERSTOOD THAT SHE DIED. THEN, THE TEARS STARTED FLOWING. I THINK I CRIED FOR ABOUT TEN MINUTES BEFORE I FINALLY COULD READ THAT KATNISS COVERED HER IN FLOWERS. THAT MADE ME CRY SOME MORE.

CINNA: OMFG I WAS SO MAD AT THE CAPITOL. INSTEAD OF MY REGULAR "SIT THERE CRYING FOR A LONG TIME" IT WAS MORE LIKE "CRY AND PUNCH THE BOOK A LOT" I WAS SOOOO MAD. THE BOOK WAS KINDA ROUGHED UP AFTER MY INITIAL ANGER SUBSIDED.

FINNICK: TRUTHFULLY, I CAN'T REMEMBER THIS DEATH VERY WELL, BUT I REMEMBER CRYING A BUNCH. I AM STILL REALLY MAD AT SUZANNE COLLINS FOR KILLING HIM.

PRIM: THIS WAS PROBABLY THE WORST FOR ME. I WAS SO UPSET AND ANGERED. I HAD TO READTHIS ONE TOO BEFORE I GOT THEMESSAGE THAT THE BOMBS KILLED PRIM. I COULD RELATE TO PRIM. MY DOG DIED FROM RUNNING AT ME AND SCARING ME OFF THE ROAD WHEN I WAS SIX, KILLING HIM TOO. ANYWAY, I PUNCHED THE BOOK AGAIN A LOT.

In the end, my books were kinda soggy and beat up looking... Oops.

Finick! I really, really liked him. And his death didn't even do anything for the story :( it was so pointless. I mean, I loved Cinna and Prim, abd their deaths were sad, but they kind of had to happen, that was the way it was, it had to happen for the story to progress. Finick did not have to die! Nothing came of his death at all...I think that's why I found it the hardest to take, because there was no reason for it.

Prim, Finnick, Rue and Cinna! :(

The fact that Rue and Prim's deaths are so well-written makes one heart-breaking (Rue) and one shocking (Prim). At the end, all that Katniss has left is Peeta, and then, her kids. You would think that the author would allow her to have Prim too!
But Rue's death was so beautifully played out I cried, when I didn't cry over Prim. Also, you get more attached to Rue, and miss her more when she dies, because she is so sweet and innocent. But the fact that Katniss volunteered for Prim in book one gives us an awful conclusion: it was all for nothing. And, if she was in the Games, Prim at least had a slim chance of survival. And the fact that Gale probably indirectly killed her is sad, too, but in my view, Gale has been a bit strange from the start.

Prim and Finnick!

I feel like Finnick's death wasn't justified. I understand Prim's, and Rue's (since she's a tribute).

Prim.

Finnick & Rue. Hands down.

Death of the old man from district Eleven (Book 2).

Rue & Prim-Innocent and sweet, cried for both of them cause they both died tring to help others
Cinna-WHY!!?? he was probaly the only decent capitol guy
Finnick-he is one of those people you get attched to when you know the real them
Boggs- ok he may not be the first but he defintly made my heart twist. He was sweet,stuck up for katniss, made it possible to get to the capitol and had a little kid

Beetee

I think Prims death was the saddest I've read it 7 times and still cant believe it. Prim just seemed so young and gentle. Rues death was also very sad but I was expecting it to happen so that didn't make it as sad, still I cried a lot, not as much as Prim dying though. Finnicks death was also upsetting, he had just found happiness with Annie and then died a truly gruesome death, it must have been horrible for him not to see his child. I probably cried at all of the deaths of the characters the author really introduced deeply because there deaths made it seem as though l had lost a friend. All of the characters didn't deserve to die they were either to young or to gentle or to caring or a different reason.

FINNICK! Oh, that was SO unnecessary! What point did his death show? None. That's right, none! He was finally reunited with Annie Cresta, and he was going to be a father! *cries*

Prim: Her death was sad, but it was necessary. Katniss did all she could to protect her. Prim was the symbol of hope and innocence, and her death showed that in a time of war and suffering, these things are easily destroyed. As sad as her death was, it was necessary.

Rue: ;( The poor 12 year old tribute from District 11. She was created to mirror Prim. She reminded Katniss of her sister and when she died it tore a part in her heart. It made her want to protect Prim more in a way, which made Prim's death even worse for Katniss.

Cinna: ;( This. Death. Was. Terrible. Cinna was the only person who truly understood Katniss! He cared for her and wanted her to win. He was always there for her, she could be herself around him. He was beaten right before Katniss eyes before entering the Quarter Quell, then he was tortured to death. *cries*

I have to say, I was surprised when Prim died, but not really sad. I bawled when Finnick died though. He was supposed to live happily-ever-after with Annie, but he ended up dying and leaving her alone. That upset me the most. After all that time of being crazy together and getting engaged (did they marry? its been a while since i read the book), I wanted them to have a long beautiful life together. Unfortunately that didn't happen.

Finnick and Prim. Rue's death was sad but I knew it would happen. Cinna's death was very sad. I liked him. But Finnick and Prim's death was a shock and I didn't see them coming and hated it. I hated that they died.

I'm going to say Prim.

RUE AND CINNA!!!! Both my favourite characters next to katniss

The old man from District 11 got to me so badly.

Hard to say. Rue and Prim were both innocent little girls who didn't even deserve to be there. Got swept in by bad luck. Cinna chose to be a part of the rebellion and I think he was fully aware that he was going to end up dying. Finnick had just gotten married and was going to live happily ever after and then bam! He dies. Madge was the spoiled pampered mayors daughter, yet she was kind to Katniss even before she was famous. She just had the bad luck of her dad being the Mayor of District 12 instead of any other. Mags was a poor old lady who died to save Katniss Peeta and Finnick. That was sad. Wiress just randomly gets her throat slit. Many more deaths were random and frankly kind of sad

Finnick was the hardest for me to actually accept. Rue was sad, but was kind of a given, with the parameters of the Hunger Games -- all but one (well, two with the new rule) would die. Prim didn't really hit me because I didn't feel like I got attached to her through the books the way I did Rue and Finnick; yes, Katniss volunteered to save her, but I couldn't feel as sad about it because Katniss had a relationship with her, not me as a reader - that relationship just wasn't talked about as much.

Finnick hit me, though. From the revelation that the second book would be sending victors back in to the games, I didn't expect the rules from the other games to hold - all bets were off, and I figured they'd get out of the games somehow, whether by not starting in the first place or by actual escape. He made it out of that arena, and with his relationship with Annie ... I just didn't see it coming. I was both attached, and blindsided.

Why, Suzanne, WHY did you have to kill Finnick, my favorite charecter in the hunger games trilogy?!?!?!

Finnick and primrose death that's really hurt at the end of series.

The most upsetting death in this series will always belong to beautiful Rue.

FINNICK and Prim.

FINNICK I just still cant believe it. He died.in only one line and after BYEYE ... I loved him and his death was like if it was nothing... He didnt need to die his death was really pointless... I dont know why the author killed him. :(

RUE HANDS DOWN!!!!!

i didnt like rue's or finnick's deaths because i liked both of their characters, but it was prim's death annoyed me the most because katniss took her place in the hunger games so she didnt have to go through it or die in it and then after all katniss does to survive and come home to her, prim still ends up killed while she is trying to help/ save people? wtf??? how can you kill her after all that? that definitely bothered me.

Finnick, hands down!

Prim's death and Finnick's were both upsetting, but I was most upset by Cinna's death. That poor guy worked his butt off to make the revolution happen and to put Katniss at the top as the Mockingjay, and didn't even get to see the fruit of his efforts.

I have this whole further storyline in my head that involves Cinna and Finnick. I understand Cinna but Finnick his death did nothing for the story. I hope in the movie they keep him. Why not they didnt keep Madge, Avox girl. Both of the picnics roof and cave scene. Bonnie and Twill very important because that is where you see the foundation being laid for District 13 and her being the face of the rebellion. Oh and let us not forget where you really know how much Katniss loves Peeta is where she looses her mind (the first time) on the Hovercraft in The Hunger Games. That is just a short list. Surely we can keep Finnick. We wont really know until 2015.

3}Finnick
2}Rue
1}Prim
Katniss volunteered for the hunger games to save prim's life and watched so may people to try and save her. It was heart retching when she died.

Oh god, Finnick's death and Cinna's I really wasn't expecting that. Prim's death did nothing for me, I knew Katniss volunteered to save her but it just felt like it happened and that's it. Finnick's just killed me cause they talked about his and Annie's child afterwards.

Probably Rue's, Finnick's and Cinna's deaths. Rue's death was so...hard because she was just a young girl and you could tell how much of a friendship she and Katniss had. And, oh, because she's Rue!

Finnick's death was upsetting because of Annie and because he's suffered so much and because it was a shock! I was not expecting Finnick to die.

And as for Cinna...oh, dear, dear Cinna. He was so gentle in a defiant way. I don't know how anybody could not love Cinna.

Finnick. Prim. Cinna.

Finnick- he was so important to Katniss while Peeta was at the capital with a messed up mind. He was one of the only only people (besides Peeta, Gale, Prim, Cinna, and Mr. Everdeen) that Katniss would trust with her life. He was also the only person who could sooth Annie when she went crazy.

Prim- I literally threw the book across the room when I found out that she died. At first I didn’t understand what had happened, so I went and reread it and was very upset. She was another one of the only people Katniss cared about. What the frick , Suzanne! You really had to go out and kill Prim and destroy Katniss’s whole life!

Cinna- Katniss loves him, and it broke her when it happened. She was absolutely mortified.



Oh you know who should’ve died? GALE!
He was honestly a jerk to Katniss after the games. Katniss was emotionally scared from them and Gale refused to accept that maybe Peeta was the right choice for her because Peeta actually understood what she was feeling.

These are my opinions and I will hold to them. If you don’t agree, don’t try to dissuade me.

CINNA it broke me

For me, it's like a 4-way tie between Rue, Finnick, Cinna, and Prim all those deaths were just gut-wrenching.

Prim and Rue and Cinna

Prim was so sweet and shy that I didn't even know she was going to die! Her death broke my heart and it pains me to see Katniss so torn apart after her death. Hell, she was going to save those kids and what did she get in return???

Rue was also a really sweet character. She saved Katniss during the Hunger Games and she was so young!! How could the games be so cruel?? Her death was the reason I was so angry at the Hunger Games. Frankly, I think if I were Katniss I would have shouted something offensive at the games after Rue dies.

And Cinna, he was like a father to Katniss. He made her shine and all her fame was because of Cinna's wonderful ideas. I loved that he gave her encouragement before she went into the arena and also didn't say anything during Katniss' second trip into the arena. He was totally awesome and didn't even deserve to die.

Finnick and Prim, plus so many more but i don't want to dwell on this all day.

Finnick. That broke my heart. Every time I read it I always hope that maybe he won't die. He did not deserve to die and I feel horrible for annie and their son.

ALL OF THEM. But if I had to chose, probably Rue, she was my favorite character...

I love the hunger games series so much and i cried a LOT throughout. I think the hardest death for me was Rue's death. The way that Katniss always spoke about how she was so much like Prim made it even more heart-wrenching when she died and i really felt like making Rue the first like 'big' death in the book really made it feel real and really suddenly reiterated how evil the Capitol government were. Finnick's death really got me going too but it was too short to get really really upset about it, it just seemed super shocking, which is the same with Cinna's.
Prims made me feel like there was no good left in the world.
