Thea had never planned on participating in the 70th Hunger Games. After all, it was her last reaping; and if her one and only name in the drawing had been selected she knew her sister, Nike, was dying to prove herself in the arena and would volunteer in her place. Unlike Thea, Nike felt she had to live up to the infamous name of their father, who had won the games at just 12.
What Thea didn't anticipate was the cruel abandonment of a girl who had no chance of surviving. Though she hated everything about the games and had planned on minding her own business, she volunteered for the girl catching the attention of her mentor, Finnick Odair.

Finnick's Story • The Hunger Games | ✓
Like all children in his world, 14-year-old Finnick Odair had the chance of being chosen for the Hunger Games. In a pool stock full of names, he was just as vulnerable as anyone from the ages of 12-18. And in District Four, which often tends to produce Career tributes, its residents could only hope that this year's pair would fall under that description. On Reaping day, a 14-year-old boy's name is called. A name often whispered down the hallways of the local high school, giggled at, fawned over. It was impossible. Him, of all people? It couldn't be, could it? Yet it was. At age 14, Finnick Odair was called forth to be a tribute in the 65th annual Hunger Games. Many residents stood there in doubt, wondering how a boy so young could possibly bring home the victor's crown. There had never been a victor so young, after all. However, there is a first time for everything. __________________________ Excerpt: ❝25, 24, 23...❞ I can do this. I have the skills, the desire...I can win. It's possible. I know it's possible.
