Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
What do I mean when I say I love Gale? I don't know. I did kiss him last night, in a moment when my emotions were running so high. But I'm sure he doesn't remember it. Does he? I hope not.

Suzanne Collins

Suzanne Collins
Because...because...she came here with me.
Suzanne Collins
