Katniss the Flame bearer

I agree with Katie, and Allyssa, this book is amazing, intriguing, and fascinating all rolled into one! I've been having an issue with connecting to books recently, and I am so glad Christine chose this book to read, I've been itching to read it, and Christine gave me the perfect opportunity!

Here's my question though, Panem is America in the way way way future, so is the anthem still the Star Spangled Banner? I've been wondering that every time it's been mentioned! I have to mention that even though he's a drunk, I am so fascinated with Haymitch, there is something about him that is so mysterious! Is there a reason he's always drunk? How could he possibly be of any help, or use to the tributes?

I can't wait to find out what happens with the training and with Katniss and Peeta. I want to know how they're relationship works out, or if there will be anything between them. I would love to have a closet and shower like she does, all automatic. Makes me wonder if that's where our technology is headed.

Great choice Christine! I just want to lay in bed all day tomorrow and finish the book, and the series for that matter, I haven't been this excited about a book since I started reading the Shopaholic series!

  2. The impression I've gotten is that this a post-apocalyptic world of sorts, so I don't think their anthem would be Star Spangled Banner. I think I saw that Panem sits on what was formerly known as the United States. That's just my opinion though.
