Charlotte
& Laura return to Panem for this week's episode of The Lettuce
Podcast. They review the second novel in Suzanne Collins' Hunger
Games series: Catching Fire.
They chat about the long list of characters, Collins' world-building
abilities, and compare the feature film to its source material.
Charlotte loves learning more information about Haymitch and how he
won his games. Laura shares which Peeta scene was not included in the
movie, to her disappointment. Together the girls re-investigate
Katniss' “Mary-Sue” tendencies, discuss whether they are Team
Peeta or Team Gale, try to determine all of the moves made by
Plutarch Heavensbee, and more!
A
short Fun & Games segment features Charlotte and Laura playing
their
favorite cross-fandom game: Sorting Hat. They choose a handful of
characters from Catching
Fire
and decide which of the Hogwarts houses they belong in. Play along
and share your thoughts in the comments.
Looking
to sip on something while listening to this episode or
reading/watching Catching
Fire.
Laura chose the Haymitch Ebernethy path, also chosen by Katniss in
this book: white liquor! Pour yourself a couple fingers of gin,
vodka, white rum, or whatever white liquor you fancy. Laura chose
gin!
