Katniss Quotes

7. Suzanne Collins has made the Hunger Games book very memorable with the characters she created. One main character she created was Katniss, the girl on fire. Katniss is a very protective of the people she cares about, and is very courageous as well. For example, on page 22 it states, “I volunteer! I gasp. I volunteer as tribute! There’s some confusion on the stage. District 12 hasn’t had a volunteer in decades and the protocol has become rusty.” This quote show how protective Katniss is of Prim, her little sister since she basically volunteered to die. This also shows Katniss’s courage since District 12 hasn’t had a volunteer for a long time and she is willing to volunteer in order to save her sister. Katniss is also a very stubborn and determined.

For example, on page 253 it says, “I jerk my head back but end up laughing. Thanks, I’ll keep it in mind. At least he’s still able to joke around.” This quote shows how even with all his wounds and his hunger weighing him down, Peeta is still very funny and caring. He knows he will not be able to survive long in his horrible condition, yet he still manages to crack a joke and lift Katniss’s, who was very likely to survive, spirits
