Reading: The Hunger Games

Starting back up, and finishing out the book with this summary! Wait until you see what happens.

Quickly the lovers spit out the berries and rinse their mouths out with water. A hovercraft appears in the sky and sucks them up. Peeta is stuck behind a glass door with doctors and Katniss struggles when he leaves her. The doctors are working on Peeta, and during this, his heart stops, twice. Kantiss is dropped off at the training center and after acting uncontrollably, she is stabbed with a needle and blacks out.
She wakes up, naked in a bed, in a recovery room. By now, I'd definitely be freaked out. Her body's been cleaned up, washed, and healed. An Avox comes in and Katniss asks if Peeta is ok. Avox nods yes, because remember they can't talk. Katniss eats and slips back into unconsciousness. Basically the eat, sleep, repeat cycle goes on for a while.
One day when she wakes up all of her scars and pain are gone. She gets ready quickly and finds Effie, Haymitch, Cinna, but not Peeta, because they're meeting must be televised. Cinna takes Katniss to get ready for the reunion. He gives her a yellow dress with added padding because she has lost so much weight during the games. The reason for the dress is because he thinks Peeta will like it.
Before the reunion Katniss gets in a word with Haymitch. He informs her that the Capitol is angry that she and Peeta almost committed suicide. Her only 'excuse' for her behavior is that she's head over heels in love with Peeta. Katniss is curious if Peeta's already been informed. Haymitch tells her that Peeta is "already there." Uh oh, Katniss knows she's in trouble. Her family might be in trouble too, along with Peeta and his family. The question is though, what did Haymitch mean when he said that Peeta is "already there?"
Katniss is oblivious as to what is going on. Everything seems way too over her head. However, she doesn't have time to worry about this because now "the most dangerous part of the Hunger Games is about to begin." I thought the games were over now, and that they were supposed to move into the Victor's Village place and be neighbors with Haymitch?
At the reunion show, Katniss and Peeta reunite with a hug and a long kiss. How precious! As they sit on a love seat, Katniss receives a cue from Haymitch, so she cuddles up to Peeta. They watch a complete recap of the games and find that the editors have made it into a love story. The president comes on stage with a crown, breaks it in half, and places a half on each of the tributes' heads.
It's time for the victory dinner, but afterwards the couple is separated so they can sleep and prepare for the interviews tomorrow. Like old times, Katniss sneaks out onto the roof, hoping Peeta will be there waiting for her. Let down, she goes back to her room and thinks she'll sneak out again later. The second sneak out is ruined when she realizes she's been locked in her room. Who the heck locked her in? Was it the Capitol trying to get revenge for the almost suicide?
It's time for the final interview. They're prepped and readied for their interview. Oce again, they're thrown onto a love seat and the interview begins. During the interview Peeta ends up answering most of the questions. Katniss is forced to answer when Caesar Flickerman, the host, asks her when she knew she was falling for Peeta. Drawing a blank Katniss takes the hint from Caesar and says that she first knew when she found out that there would be two winners. With the subject changes to the plethora of injuries from the game. Katniss blames herself for Peeta's leg injury, but Caesar tells her that she also saved his life. Caesar asks about the suicidal berries. To wrap up the interview, she explains that she couldn't stand to think of her life without having Peeta near her.
Katniss cleans out her room and is taken to the train station to be taken back to District 12. The two get ready to go on the victor's tour through the districts. Katniss feels comfortable and more like herself when she changed into a plain shirt and pants, but when Peeta puts his arm around her she gets a weird feeling.
The train stops to refuel and the two go outside for air. Katniss's mind is being taken over with thoughts of Gale. Haymitch sees them and says that they need to keep the romance going until they get back to their district and the cameras leave.
Confused, Peeta asks Katniss what Haymitch was talking about. Turns out Peeta thought all the love in the arena was the real deal, however, Katniss knew it wasn't. Well she doesn't really know how she feels anymore. Gale or Peeta? He tells her to tell him how she feels when she straightens everything out. The train pulls into the station and, just like when they left, there are cameras everywhere. When they go to get off the train Peeta asks Katniss to hold his hand "One more time? For the audience?" She takes his hand and they get off the train.

AH what happens next?! Who does Katniss pick? I'm waiting on the second book, Catching Fire, to come in so we can figure out.
