Peeta

“I want to die as myself…. I don’t want them to change me in there. Turn me into some kind of monster that I’m not.” –Peeta

I think that peeta is a really good person and isn’t like everyone else. He cares about people, for example peeta helped katniss and her family after her dad died and they had no money or food. He burned bread on purpose and he got beat by his mom for it all just so he could give the bread to katniss. Peeta is a really good person and when he says that he doesn’t want to die as something he’s not. That’s him saying he rather just to have them kill him then him have to change who he is.

What does peeta fear more then death? I think at first Peeta was scared of dying as the monster they wanted him to be but as the book goes on an I start to see how Peeta really is and how he tells everyone he is in love with Katniss I think he’s fear is Katniss dying. For example he says that he doesn’t want to be turned into something he’s not but when the games start he joins the career tributes. The career tributes are the ones who are the best at the games. Who have been training for them and are ready. Him joining them is him kind of going against what he said he would never do because now he has to kill and do bad things. But I think the only reason he decided to join them was because of Katniss. Since Katniss got a high score he knows that their going to want to kill her. By him joining them he knows everything their going to do and at one part he does save her from one of the career tributes. But because he did that now he’s on his own the career tributes don’t really want him their just using him and Katniss isn’t sure what to think. But by him doing this he went against everything he said he didn’t want to be. But I still think he is a good person because he’s not really killing people just to save himself he’s doing it to save Katniss as while.
