To me, I think the book would have been vastly improved if Collins hadn't gone with the 1st person POV, and incorporated the stories of some of the other tributes, including at least one of the Careers. It would have been a far more fascinating look at this society/concept of children-in-war that she was supposedly going for (you know, rather than a really dumb love triangle and cute descriptions of clothing).

Thiiiis. I loved Clove in both movie and book versions because she actually seemed to have a damn personality, unlike Miss Katniss with her "Emotional Range Of A Teaspoon", and was more proactive rather than sleeping all the time and being forced into a relationship to gain sympathy (if that makes any sense). I thought Cato was more upset that he didn't get to kill Clove himself (as mentioned in a fic I read once).

Glimmer and Foxface were also awesome - they had nuances to them and I really wanted to know their backstories.

Didn't really give a damn about Katniss, Peeta, Rue, Thresh, et al... (Well, maybe Haymitch and Gale.)

"I thought Cato was more upset that he didn't get to kill Clove himself"

Just interested, what makes you think so? I don't really disagree with this idea, it's just that this has never occurred to me.

I would have liked to know more about Foxface, Clove and Glimmer, too. Or actually, this applies to all the tributes. It bugs me that we never even got names for most of them.

Like I said above, Foxface utterly fascinates me, and I really wish we knew more about her. Including her actual name.

(I liked Haymitch a lot, too. I thought his character was really interesting. Also, he's played by Woody Harrelson in the movie, and I freakin' love Woody Harrelson; he's one of my favorite actors.)
