Characters edit
- Katniss Everdeen: The main character. The story is told from her point of view. She and her hunting partner Gale sneek often sneek out into the woods to hunt for food. Hunting is the only way to feed her family.
- Peeta Mellark: Son of the baker but is a good baker & cake decorator on his own. He likes Katniss and is pleased when he is chosen to attend the games with her, as the Male tribute for their district. He also attended school with our heroine.

- Effie Trinket: The escort for District 12, pink-haired Effie has been completely co-opted by the system, forcing a painfully false cheer as she exhorts her tributes to rise happily to each "big, big, big day!" She aspires to a more prestigious district than 12 and is unapologetically self-serving.
- Mrs. Everdeen: Katniss's mother. She practices holistic healing. She relies on our heroine for their supplies since her husband died in a mining accident. She suffered a catatonic depression for a few months after her husband's death. She runs an apothecary.
- Cinna: The District 12 stylist.

Quotes edit
-
“You and me and Haymitch. Very cozy. Picnics, birthdays, long winter nights around the fire retelling old Hunger Games’ tales.”
Peeta Mellark -
“We could do it you know...live in the woods, you and I, we could make it.”
Gale Hawthorne -
“What about you? I’ve seen you in the market. You can lift hundred pound bags of flour,” I snap at him. “Tell him that. That’s not nothing.” “Yes, and I’m sure the arena will be full of bags of flour for me to chuck at people.”
Katniss and Peeta -
“And I knew just like my father, I was a goner.”
Peeta Mellark -
“Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor!”
Effie Trinket -
“You've got about as much charm as a dead slug.”
Haymitch Abernathy -
“It crosses my mind that Cinna's calm and normal demeanor masks a complete madman.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Well, if you put enough pressure on coal it turns into pearls.”
Effie Trinket -
“I want to show them I'm more than just a piece in their games.”
Peeta Mellark -
“This is the first kiss that we’re both fully aware of. Neither of us hobbled by sickness or pain or simply unconscious. Our lips neither burning with fever or icy cold. This is the first kiss where I actually feel stirring inside my chest. Warm and curious. This is the first kiss that makes me want another.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“I did the cakes.”
Peeta Mellark -
“Stay alive.”
Haymitch Abernathy -
“I almost forgot! Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds"... "be ever in your favor!”
Gale Hawthorne & Katniss Everdeen -

Peeta Mellark -
“Better run, girl on fire.”
Thresh -
“See, like this. I'm smiling at you even though you're aggravating me.”
Effie Trinket -

Katniss Everdeen -
“Entrails. No hissing. This is the closest we will ever come to love.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“District 12. Where you can starve to death in safety.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Up up up! It's going to be a big big big day!”
Effie Trinket -
“You're not afraid of fire, are you, Katniss?”
Cinna -
“Now I am truly in danger of crying, but fortunately Haymitch chooses this time to come staggering across the stage to congratulate me. “Look at her. Look at this one!” he hollers, throwing an arm around my shoulders. He’s surprisingly strong for such a wreck. “I like her!” His breath reeks of liquor and it’s been a long time since he’s bathed. “Lots of . . . “ He can’t think of the word for a while. “Spunk!” he says triumphantly. “More than you!” he releases me and starts for the front of the stage. “More than you!” he shouts, pointing directly into a camera. Is he addressing the audience or is he so drunk he might actually be taunting the Capitol? I’ll never know because just as he’s opening his mouth to continue, Haymitch plummets off the stage and knocks himself unconscious.”
Katniss and Haymitch -
“I'm very hard to catch, and if they can't catch me, they can't kill me. So don't count me out.”
Rue -
“You never forget the face of the person who is your last hope.”
Katniss Everdeen (thinking about the readheaded avox) -
“I never want to have kids," I say."I might. If I didn't live here," says Gale."But you do," I say, irritated.”
Katniss and Gale -
“The next hours are agonizing. At once, it's clear I cannot gush. We try me playing cocky, but I just don't have the arrogance. Apparently, I'm too "vulnerable" for ferocity. I'm not witty. Funny. Sexy. Or mysterious.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“You'll be living up in some tree eating squirrels and picking off people with arrows. You know what my mother said to me when she came to say good-bye, as if to cheer me up, she says maybe District Twelve will finally have a winner. Then I realized, she didn't mean me, she meant you!”
Peeta Mellark -
“I shot an arrow at them. Not exactly at them. In their direction. It's like Peeta said, I was shooting and they were ignoring me so I just...I just lost my head, so I shot an apple out of their stupid roast pig's mouth!”
Katniss Everdeen -
“See that little girl? I wanted to marry her mother, but she ran off with a coal miner," "A coal miner? Why did she want a coal miner if she could've had you?" "Because when he sings...even the birds stop to listen.”
Peeta Mellark & His Father -
“You're about as romantic as dirt.”
Haymitch Abernathy -
“No, you keep it. That's how I decided to trust you.”
Rue -
“You and me and Haymitch. Very cozy. Picnics, birthdays, long winter nights around the fire retelling old Hunger Games’ tales.”
Peeta Mellark -
“Peeta,” I say lightly. “You said at the interview you’d had a crush on me forever. When did forever start?”“Oh, let’s see. I guess the first day of school. We were five. You had on a red plaid dress and your hair . . . it was in two braids instead of one. My father pointed you out when we were waiting to line up"”
Peeta Mellark and Katniss Everdeen -
“I’m still betting on you.”
Cinna -
“How about that kiss?” I burst out laughing because the whole thing is so revolting I can’t stand it. “Something wrong?” he asks a little too innocently.”
Peeta Mellark -
“I don't want to lose the boy with the bread.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Sitting at Prim's knees, guarding her, is the world's ugliest cat. Mashed-in nose, half of one ear missing, eyes the color of rotting squash. Prim named him Buttercup, insisting that his muddy yellow coat matched the bright flower. He hates me.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“I try to forgive her for my father's sake. But to be honest, I'm not the forgiving type.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Besides, if he wants kids, Gale won't have any trouble finding a wife. He's good-looking, he's strong enough to handle the work in the mines, and he can hunt. You can tell by the way the girls whisper about him when he walks by in school, that they want him. It makes me jealous but not for the reason people would think. Good hunting partners are hard to find.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“His rages seem pointless to me, although I never say so. It's not that I don't agree with him. I do. But what good is yelling about the Capitol in the middle of the woods? It doesn't change anything. It doesn't make things fair. It doesn't fill our stomachs.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“One time, my mother told me that I always eat like I'll never see food again. And I said, "I won't unless I bring it home." That shut her up.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Well, what's this? Did I actually get a pair of fighters this year?”
Haymitch Abernathy -
“R-i-i-i-p! I grit my teeth as Venia, a woman with aqua hair and gold tattoos above her eyebrows, yanks a strip of fabric from my leg, tearing out the hair beneath it. "Sorry!" she pipes in her silly Capitol accent. "You're just so hairy!"”
Katniss Everdeen -
“It's hard to hate my prep team. They're such total idiots.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Katniss, the girl who was on fire.”
Cinna -
“What about you? I've seen you in the market. You can lift hundred-pound bags of flour," I snap at him. "Tell him that. That's not nothing." "Yes, and I'm sure the arena will be full of bags of flour for me to chuck at people.”
Katniss and Peeta -
“She has no idea. The effect she can have.”
Peeta Mellark -
“It's weird, how much he's noticed me. Like the attention he's paid to my hunting. And apparently, I have not been as oblivious to him as I imagined, either. The flour. The wrestling. I have kept track of the boy with the bread.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“It's lovely. If only you could frost someone to death.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Gale and I were thrown together by a mutual need to survive. Peeta and I know the other's survival means our own death.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Effie takes both of us by the hand and, with actual tears in her eyes, wishes us well. Thanks us for being the best tributes it has ever been her privilege to sponsor. And then, because it's Effie and she's apparently required by law to say something awful, she adds, "I wouldn't be at all surprised if I finally get promoted to a decent district next year!”
Katniss and Effie -
“Come here to finish me off, sweetheart?”
Peeta Mellark -
“Here your dreams are sweet and tomorrow brings them true. Here is the place where I love you.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“What about you? I’ve seen you in the market. You can lift hundred pound bags of flour,” I snap at him. “Tell him that. That’s not nothing.”“Yes, and I’m sure the arena will be full of bags of flour for me to chuck at people.”
Katniss and Peeta -
“Yes, frosting. The final defense of the dying.”
Peeta Mellark -
“I never want to have kids”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Stupid people are dangerous.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“So instead of acknowledging applause, I stand there unmoving while they take part in the boldest form of dissent they can manage. Silence. Which says we do not agree. We do not condone. All of this is wrong.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“The only rule in the arena is, STAY ALIVE and KILL.”
Haymitch Abernathy -
“I take his hand, holding on tightly, preparing for the cameras, and dreading the moment when I will finally have to let go.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“I am not pretty. I am not beautiful. I am as radiant as the sun”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Shut up and eat your pears.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Don't be superior. You can never tell what you'll find in the arena. Say it's actually a gigantic cake.”
Peeta Mellark -
“You know, you're kind of squeamish for such a lethal person”
Peeta Mellark -
“Remember, we're madly in love, so it's all right to kiss me anytime you feel like it.”
Peeta Mellark -
“Don't talk like that. I didn't squeeze all that pus out for nothing.”
Katniss Everdeen to Peeta -
“I'll be so stinkin' rich, I'll be able to pay someone to do my hearing.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“But there are much worse games to play.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“But what is a slingshot against a 220-pound male with a sword?”
Katniss Everdeen -
“"I fumble. I'm not as smooth with words as Peeta. And while I am talking, the idea of actually losing him hits me again and I realized how much I actually don't want him to die. And it's not about the sponsors. And it's not about what will happen back at home. And it's not that I just don't want to be alone. It's him. I don't want to lose the boy with the bread.”
katniss-everdeen-(thought) -
“To the everlasting credit of the people of District 12, not one person claps.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Sixty seconds. That's how long we're required to stand on our metal circles before the sound of the gong releases us. Step off before the minute is up, and land mines blow your legs off.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“'Katniss, it's just hunting ... You know how to kill.' 'Not people,' I say. 'How different can it be, really?' says Gale grimly. The awful thing is that if I can forget they're people, it will be no different at all.”
Gale Hawthorne and Katniss Everdeen -
“That was the first time I ever saw him smile. It transformed him from someone menacing to someone you wished you know. But it took several months before I returned that smile.”
Katniss Everdeen -
“Maybe he wasn't always a drunk. Maybe, in the beginning, he tried to help the tributes. But then it got unbearable. It must be hell to mentor two kids and then watch them die. Year after year after year. I realize that if I get out of here, that will become my job.”
Katniss Everdeen
