brings draw grows incredible later lived lottery name people pretend
I loved 'A Tree Grows in Brooklyn.' I read it later as an adult, but I loved 'We Have Always Lived in a Castle.' And that brings you around to 'The Lottery.' You can't pretend - it's a lottery in which you draw a name and people die. That's a short story, but it's such an incredible short story.
both character knowing last lead name owes struggle
Katniss Everdeen owes her last name to Bathsheba Everdene, the lead character in 'Far From the Madding Crowd.' The two are very different, but both struggle with knowing their hearts.
hands names body
When I break into the clearing, she's on the ground, hopelessly entangled in a net. She just has the time to reach her hand through the mesh and say my name before the spear enters her body.
children names giving
Glimmer, I hear someone call her - ugh, the names the people in District 1 give their children are so ridiculous ...
names broken want
Several sets of arms would embrace me. But in the end, the only person I truly want to comfort me is Haymitch, because he loves Peeta, too. I reach out for him and say something like his name and he's there, holding me and patting my back. "It's okay. It'll be okay, sweetheart." He sits me on a length of broken marble pillar and keeps an arm around me while I sob.
taken home names
My name is Katniss Everdeen. My home is District Twelve. Peeta was taken prisoner. He is thought to be dead. Most likely is dead. It would probably be best if he were dead... - Katniss EverdeenS
hands names voice
She reaches in, digs her hand deep into the ball, and pulls out a slip of paper. The crowd draws in a collective breath, and then you can hear a pin drop, and I'm feeling nauseous and so desperately hoping that it's not me, that it's not me, that it's not me. Effie Trinket crosses back to the podium, smoothes the slip of paper, and reads out the name in a clear voice. And it's not me. It's Primrose Everdeen.
girl names katniss
No one will forget me. Not my look, not my name. Katniss. The girl who was on fire.
names twelve
Her name's Prim. She's just twelve. And I love her more than anything.
president-snow names bad-times
I guess this is a bad time to mention I hung a dummy and painted Seneca Crane's name on it...
thinking names waking
ll I can think about, every day, every waking minute since they drew Prim's name at the reaping, is how afraid I am.
real names katniss
So, in a way, my name being drawn in the reaping was a real piece of luck," says Peeta.
thinking names sight
I'm almost there, almost to the barricade, when I thinks she hears me. Because for just a moment, she catches sight of me, her lips form my name. And that's when the rest of the parachutes go off.
katniss names should
My name is Katniss Everdeen. Why am I not dead? I should be dead.
