Lauren Lee- //The Hunger Games// At the beginning, Katniss is extremely protective over her family, and she has taken it upon herself to be the provider for her mother and younger sister, Prim. She hunts for their food, and hunting and making sure her family is ok are the only things that she really ever thinks about. Because of this, she doesn't ever give the time to think about how corrupt her society is, or the fact that her best friend Gale may actually be in love with her. It's almost like she has "blinders" on that inable her from seeing what is really happening in the world. This is pretty much her defense against the world; it's almost as if she thinks that if she doesn't "know" what is happening, then she won't really be affected by it. Over the course of the story, Katniss takes off her "blinders" and starts to see things for how they really are. She realizes that someone must rise against The Capitol, and the only way to save her's and Peeta's life is that she must weave an intricate story that will essentially alter her life forever. She survives thanks to her survival skills that she has relied on to protect herself and her family, but she learns knew survival skills in the end that allow her to become a much bigger threat to The Capitol. Her life of staying "hidden" by trying to not "know" what is going on has come to an end, as she is glorified for being a winner and saving Peeta's life... as she has also been placed on the list of The Capitol's most wanted. She is a strong girl, both mentally and physically. So Katniss tries to shut people out, so that she won't have to care for them and most likely somehow get her heart broken, but she soon realizes that she needs to give that kind of attention to others; not only to satisfy her needs, but other's needs too.
