Catching Fire

So if you didn't already know I finsished reading The Hunger Games, and I've decided to read the next book in the series, Catching Fire. From the beginning I could just tell there was a lot of trouble coming Katniss's way ever since she almost killed herself and Peeta in the arena with the poisonous berries, and boy was I right. Already the president of Panem has come to visit her telling her that she must go around saying that she only was going to kill herself and Peeta in the arena because she was madly in love so it doesn't appear that she was doing it as an act of rebellion against the Capitol. Even though she wasn't actually doing it as an act of rebellion, she isn't exactly madly in love with Peeta either, she loves Gale, so this is going to cause some major problems in the future. In addition to this, Peeta has proposed to Katniss hoping to ease President Snow's fears of an uprising, but to him a proposal will not be good enough. Now that Katniss knows this isn't good enough, she just wants to give up because she knows her true love is Gale and anything her and Peeta do will never be good enough in President Snow's eyes. She's beginning to realize that life in the districts is not as different as life in the arena.
