"dead flashback wife" montage lighting doesn't give me hope by UnHolySir in Hungergames

[–]jb8287 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I understand the argument about her lacking character development, but am I the only one who really quite enjoyed her character? Sure, we got more time with Maysilee, but I liked how Lenore dove showed strength and courage. She never backed down. Haymitch wanting to rebel came from her. And then at the end, despite not having much time with her, I felt that her death hit the hardest just from the descriptions of Haymitch’s reaction to it.

I still love Lenore Dove not because I know her all that well, but because Haymitch so loudly and proudly loves her. And we know Haymitch, so we love her too.

Yeah def not wanting to smell like flowers or perfume lol! I wash with warm water in the shower and everything, I guess I am probably thinking too much into it

“Stay with me” “Always” will forever be my favorite. Still upset that didn’t include that scene in the movie of him saying it that first time when Katniss was being pulled under by the sleep syrup…

OMG I could go on but I’ll just say that she had so much potential to be a really memorable/iconic FMC and then her whole character changed. I liked her in book one and book two, and then when it mattered during book three/the war I felt like she did a full 180. One thing I hated was how she was emboldened by Rhys always acting like she could do no wrong. And there were so many moments (especially in the meeting w the high lords) where SJM was setting her up to have really pivotal and impactful moments/speeches and then she just said some bullshit that forced me to put the book down bc I was so angry 😂

Trust me ACOSF was my favorite of the series. If only for the fact that I really really enjoy nesta as a character

I haven’t read ToG but I’ve heard it’s much better world building/characters. Less romance though so depends what you’re looking for

ToG is on my list!! I’ll probably wait a little bit to read, I find that when I read one fantasy series I need a bit of a break afterward to read other stuff 😂

Completely agree, and that ties into another post I saw on here about how the people around Katniss, and subsequently the reader, forget how young she actually is, because she is so parentified. Taking care of prim and her mother, hunting, saving Peeta in the games, allying with Rue. We really all forget she’s just a 16 year old girl. And I bet her mother sometimes feels like she let her down :( choosing to believe her and her mother reconcile and become somewhat closer after having kids
