Suzanne Collins
So I only say, So what should we do with our last few days? I just want to spend every possible minute of the rest of my life with you, Peeta replies.
Suzanne Collins
I miss him so badly it hurts.
Suzanne Collins
It's not easy to find a topic. Talking of home is painful. Talking of the present unbearable.
Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
Positioned on my dresser, that white-as-snow rose is a personal message to me. It speaks of unfinished business. It whispers, I can find you. I can reach you. Perhaps I am watching you now.
Suzanne Collins
A faint light burned in the pit revealing a furry creature hunched over a stone slab, fiddling with something. At first Gregor raised a warning hand. He thought it was a rat. Then the creature lifted his head and Gregor recognized what was left of his dad.
