I don't think Katniss is a weak character. I just think she's a terrible narrator, which drags the books down.

This this this.

I love Katniss. She's kickass, but the last book especially was SO FRUSTRATING to read. Having your main character cutting herself from the action during a good chunk of the book isn't a very good thing when there is so much things going on that a reader wants to hear about!

I don't know if it makes her a weak character, but I found her to be a very flat character.

I also found her to be whatever the plot needed her to be, when it needed her to be. If she needed to be smart, she put things together no one else did, otherwise she missed so many things in the name of foreshadowing.

But oh my God, yes, she was an atrocious narrator and I hated the books largely because I just wanted her to shut up! I mean, I had other issues with the books, but her narration was the worst.

Most definitely. It kind of links with my previous comment about how I loved FFXIII saga and partly it's because it is about how a somewhat average person being shoved in a series of cosmic mess, and while all they wanted was to protect their loved ones, they have no choice but react to becoming a symbol of heroism.

The problem is that I don't think I will be able to stand FFXIII if it was narrated by someone who writes like Collins, and have internal dialogues like Katniss.

My other issue is the one that I have with lots dystopian stories written by writers of first world countries. I can't explain this well, except that I got the vibe that Collins have never truly lived in a disordered society and it shows.
