I felt borderline sacrilegious when I typed "hate" in the post title! I can't image such a thing, but I did that just to prove to you (and myself) that I'm genuinely interested to hear your thoughts about this series. To me, this story is so romantic and tragic, beautifully melancholy, and dreadfully optimistic.
What I wanna know, is:
a) What is going on with that sneaky capital
b) Will both of Katniss' love interests survive for her to choose one of them? Or will she end up with whoever lives? Ugh, the suspense!
Here's my take on the whole, team Peeta / team Gale situation...
Peeta is loyal, charming, loving, sincere, and would be an amazing dad. Let's face it...he'd do ANYTHING for Katniss...even die for her. He's proven he has a spine and ultimately he just wants Katniss to be happy...even if it breaks his heart.
Gale, on the other hand, is sort of a loose cannon. I feel like I don't really know who he is. But its unquestionable that he and Katniss are best friends, and are developing romantic feelings for each other. They have much in common and they feel like they belong together.
So does she make the rational choice, or go with her heart?
And where is Peeta anyway?! At the end of the second book, we don't even know if he's going to live! I think he will somehow give up his life for Katniss and the greater good and she'll end up with Gale, but I could totally be wrong.
c) Ooh, and what's going on with the most delightful and sweet Cinna? He really stole my heart and I wanna know more about him. He lives in the capital, yet he's also a major player in the uprising. Can't wait to see what happens...I don't think we've seen the last of him.
d) And last but not least, what is up with district 13? I definitely think it still exists in some form but I can't quite piece everything together.
Just have to wait four and a half more months to find out--aah!
