Disclaimer: This is actually supposed to be a 30-day challenge, but given my impatient nature I decided to do it in one day. Haha! =p
I've already written in this blog how big a fan I am of The Hunger Games trilogy. So, while on maternity leave, I've decided to reread the books since I know that the movie is to be released on 2012. Oohh... I can't wait... So, to alleviate my thirst for the movie, I decided to answer this 30-day challenge I found on the web.
Day 2: Your least favorite character: Pres. Coin! Yes, I hate her more than Pres. Snow.
Day 3: A character you hate that everyone loves: Tough one... Hate is such a big word... But Prim is I think my least favorite... I only liked her in Mockingjay...
Day 4: A character you love that everyone hates: Maybe Johanna because she was really a bitch most of the time. Hahaha!
Day 5: Your favorite fight/battle scene: When the Careers found Katniss on top of a tree. I just like their conversation exchanges.
Day 6: A scene that made you laugh: When Katniss and Finnick woke Peeta up with burn ointment on their faces. It made me think of friends playing pranks on each other. =)
Day 7: A scene that made you cry: Since I'm a big crybaby, it's a given that I've cried lots of times because of these books. First, was when Katniss volunteered to take Prim's place in the reaping and told their mother to take care of Prim. Then, when Rue died... When Cinna died... During Katniss' speech in District 11... When Peeta didn't recognize / strangled Katniss... Last conversation between Katniss and Gale...
Day 8: The character you are most like: Katniss... In the sense that I'm willing to do anything for my family.
Day 9: Your favorite quote: "Why do you think I'm going, brainless?" - Johanna to Katniss, when Johanna told Katniss to kill Pres. Snow. Wala lang, i just like the cariño brutal friendship of Johanna and Katniss.
Day 10: Peeta or Gale: Gale! But Peeta is not a bad choice either. But yeah, Gale for me.
Day 11: Something you hate about the series: That it ended so soon. Haha! I want more!!!
Day 12: A character you wish hadn’t died: Definitely, Finnick!!! He should have been given a happy ending! I just don't get why he had to die...
Day 13: A character you wish had died: This might seem contradicting, but Gale should have died in the end. At least that way, I can accept why Katniss chose Peeta. And besides, the ending made it seem that Gale is as good as dead anyway for Katniss.
Day 14: Your favorite tribute (aside from Peeta/Katniss): Finnick, Johanna and Thresh (Yes, even with brief exposure, i like Thresh.)
Day 15: Your least favorite tribute (aside from Peeta/Katniss): Hmm.. Maybe Clove. Just because of the way she wanted to kill Katniss. So inhumane...
Day 16: A question you wish had been answered in the book: Being one of the main casts, I don't get why there wasn't any back story on Peeta's family.
Day 17: The worst death: Finnick! I can't get over why he had to die!
Day 18: A song that reminds you of the series: I'm not good with songs...
Day 19: Your favorite pairing: Gale and Katniss of course... Finnick and Annie also.
Day 20: Your least favorite pairing: I want to say Peeta and Katniss, but I like them as well... So, no answer to this question.
Day 21: A pairing you don’t get: Does Madge really like Gale???
Day 22: Your favorite book of the three: Definitely, Hunger Games!
Day 23: Your favorite secondary character: Cinna, Finnick and Boggs
Day 24: Your least favorite secondary character: Katniss' mother. It seems that she doesn't care much for Katniss. As a newbie mom, I just don't get it!
Day 25: Your dream cast: They've already cast the movie, so i just hope that they give justice to the book.
Day 26: Your favorite scene in The Hunger Games: When Peeta told Claudius Templesmith during his interview that he cannot win and get his dream girl at the same time because they went to the hunger games together. I just find it so sweet!
Day 27: Your favorite scene in Catching Fire: When Katniss delivered her speech in District 11. It was so touching!
Day 28: Your favorite scene in Mockingjay: When Peeta was allowed to eat in the dining area for the first time. You can really sense the tension among him, Katniss and Gale.
Day 29: Your favorite thing about the entire series: That it has a different and unique plot. I've never read something like that.
Day 30: A book/series that you would rec to fellow fans: Aside from Harry Potter and Twilight, I also like the Mortal Instrument series.
So friends, if you haven't read this series yet, now is the time to start. =)
