Fin. Forever.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->Before we get into my general nonsensical predictions, let&#8217;s go over my predictions from last time so we can all laugh at how bad I am at this.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We will see Effie in a new color wig. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>FUCK YEAH I RULE.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>Gale and Katniss will start off being friends; Gale teases Katniss about what she did in the Games, but he eventually starts growing apart from her. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>NOPE. NOPE.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>Peeta is going to act indifferent to Katniss at the opening of the novel, a continuation of the end of the first book. <strong>I AM A GENIUS.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>We will not see President Snow until the end of the book. <strong>A;KSADJF A;SFHAS;ASDFF;KLJ FDSA;JFLS<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>The title is a reference to Katniss herself. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m guessing that since she is The Girl On Fire, she gets\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6.caught? Wow, that sounded much better in my head than it does when I type it out. <strong>CLEARLY I AM FLAWLESS.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Katniss\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mother will have improved. <strong>TRUE ~TRELAWNEY~ STATUS<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Katniss will meet Rue\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s parents on that tour she mentioned in the last chapter of The Hunger Games. They will thank her for what she did in the arena. <strong>FUCK YEAH.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Conversely, she will meet the parents of the boy from District One who she killed and they will hate her. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>NICE TRY.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>Someone will find out that Katniss and Gale have been leaving the district to hunt. (Maybe that relates to how she is caught?) <strong>OH SHIT YEAH.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>We will see the Capitol again. <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>FUCK YEAH.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>This is a no-brainer, but should be said: We will get a much better idea of where the districts in Panem are and what they each specialize in. <strong>I DON&#8217;T KNOW IF THIS COUNTS.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>And let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just get to the big predictions. I think Katniss\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s mom and Gale will die by the end of the book. Collins clearly has no reserves about killing off characters, so I think they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll both die. <strong>WELL. OK.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Katniss will not figure out if she likes Gale or Peeta more by the end of the book.\u00c2\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>I AM COUNTING THIS ONE.<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<li>I think we will finally hear about hints of some sort of rebellion or war by the end of the book as well. These dystopian novels usually deal with someone standing up against the tyrannical government in it. <strong>AS;DFJSADL; OR BY CHAPTER 2. LOL.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>OH MAN. I forgot how fun these are.
