Quotes
"Darkness has given me a brief reprieve, but by the time the sun rises, the Careers will have formulated a plan to kill me."  pg. 186
"The swelling. The pain. The ooze. Watching Glimmer twitching to death on the ground. It's a lot to handle before the sun has even cleared the horizon."  pg. 191
"A butterfly balloons to the size of a house then shatters into a million stars. Trees transform to blood and splash down over my boots. Ants begin to crawl out of the blisters on my hands and I can't shake them free."  pg. 194
"Sick and disoriented, I'm able to form only one thought:  Peeta Mellark just saved my life. Then the ants bore into my eyes and I black out."  pg. 194
