Suzanne Collins 2009
In this second book of the Hunger game series, Katniss has to fight her way out of the Capitol's intense desire to punish her severely. Her seemingly defiant behavior has now started a rebellion of the twelve districts of Penam against the Capitol.
"Every person in the crowd presses the three middle fingers of their left hand against their lips and extends them to me. It's our sign from District 12, the last good-bye I gave Rue in the arena."
"In that one slight motion, I see the end of hope, the beginning of the destruction of everything I hold dear in the world. I can't guess what form my punishment will take, how wide the net will be cast, but when it is finished, there will most likely be nothing left."
"I'm filled with awe, as I always am, as I watch her transform from a woman who calls me to kill a spider to a woman immune to fear. When a sick or dying person is brought to her... this is the only time I think my mother knows who she is."
"Now a new kind of confidence is lighting up inside of me, because I think I finally know who Haymitch is. And I'm beginning to know who I am. And surely, two people who have caused the Capitol so much trouble can think of a way to get Peeta home alive."
"Then I step away quickly to watch the reaction on the Gamemakers' faces as they read the name on the dummy."
"But I'm not naked. I'm in a dress of the exact design of my wedding dress, only it's the color of coal and made of tiny feathers. Wonderingly, I lift my long, flowing sleeves into the air, and that's when I see myself on the television screen."
I love this book!! I am team peeta and so some of my favorite quotes are:
ReplyDelete"Most of my nightmares are about losing you. I'm okay once I realize you're here."
"I wish I could freeze this moment, right here, right now, and live in it forever."
"I want to spend every possible minute of the rest of my life with you."
-Peeta Mellark
Thanks,Anonymous. I have to reread this book and add more quotes as well as the pages one day.
ReplyDeleteIlike your quote, Anonymous. I'm also team Peeta. Here are two of my favs.
ReplyDelete"Was that really the only time you kissed Gale?" asks Peeta.
With all that's happened today,is that really the question that's been praying on him?
I look at Peeta and he gives me a sad smile. I hear Haymitch's voice. “You could do a lot worse.” At this moment, it's impossibe to imagine how I could do any better."
I love Peeta as of now haven,t read Catching Fire yet , can't seem to get hands on copy. Can't wait to find out what happens. Sorry no quotes.
ReplyDeletewow, i cant get over how great theessee quotes are, they make me wanna go waaaaaaawaaaaaaa,, yeno , like cry , i feel so sad.!.!.!.!.!.
ReplyDeleteRead all three book. Love the quotes chosen especially the one about Peeta ( love him, wish he were real) My friend makes fun of me saying "He has only one leg" and its the truth, but i don't care ahha. Can't wait for the movie, hope its amazing... "This time, there is nothing but us to interrupt us. And after a few attempts, Peeta gives up on talking. The sensation inside me grows warmer and spreads out from my chest, down through my body, out along my arms and legs, to the tips of my being. Instead of satisfying me, the kisses have the opposite effect, of making me need greater. I thought I was something of an expert on hunger, but this is an entirely new kind." -Katniss, Catching Fire
