“Finally Haymitch breaks the silence. "So we're all heading off into the great unknown, are we?" he asks me. "No," I say. "Not any more." "Worked through the flaws in that plan, did you, sweetheart?" he asks. "Any new ideas?" "I want to start an uprising," I say. Haymitch just laughs. It's not even a mean laugh, which is more troubling. It shows he can't even take me seriously. "Well, I want a drink. You let me know how that works out for you, though," he says.”

“In sharp contrast with Katniss, who’s constantly thinking about how her actions will impact others - her family and her community - and who’s determined to protect her sister and her mother, the prep team’s docile self-focus means that the stylists experience even the televised horrors of the Hunger Games in personal terms: '"I was still in bed!" "I had just had my eyebrows dyed!" "I swear I nearly fainted!" Everything is about them, not the dying boys and girls in the arena'.”

Not plain rose but evening primrose. The flower my sister was named for.”
