One character trait of Katniss Everdeen is brave. She is brave because she volunteered to become a reaping, so that her sister didn't have to compete. Furthermore, she didn't show any signs of weakness on television. One quote to support my claim is when she said "Everyone will make notes of my tears, and I'll be marked as an easy target. A weakling." This shows how she is brave by not giving in to her emotions.

My favorite part was when Katniss and Peeta cleverly forced the game makers into letting them both live. Katniss knew that it would ruin the games if there would be no winner, so she predicted that if they both threatened to kill themselves, they would have to make two winners. Claudius Templesmith said "Ladies and gentlemen I am pleased to announce the two victors" (Page 345) This shows the gamemakers giving up.

One important part is that Katniss and Peeta are actually starting to fall in love. Now, they don't feel forced to kiss, and enjoy it. Additionally, they feel comfortable and safe around each other. Katniss said "Because we're supposed to be making this stuff up, playing at being in love, not actually being in love." (Page 301) This proves how their romance is starting to become a reality.

One shocking part was right before the chapter ends when Rue gets killed. This surprised me because I thought that she would be one of the last people standing in the Hunger Games. Furthermore, Rue was very clever, so I'm astonished how she got caught in the net. Katniss says "She just had time to reach her hand through the mesh and say my name before the spear entered her body." On page 232 Which shows how she dies.

I was shocked when Peeta confessed his love for Katniss during the interview. Out of nowhere he started talking about a girl until everybody realized it was Katniss. Furthermore, it was right before the Hunger Games started. On page 133 Katniss said "I realize, Me! He means me!" This shows Katniss' expression on how she was shocked and confused aswell.

One conflict Katniss faces is how much she should trust Peeta. One moment she is talking about how kindhearted he is. But the next moment she talks about how he is trying to trick her. On page 71 Katniss said "It's not really fair to present us as a team and then lock us into an arena to try and kill each other" This is one of the many times when Katniss is conflicted about how much she should trust her 'teammate'.
