Happy Friday! Do you know what the most read Hunger Games story is?

That is difficult to know accurately.  Here is my best guess based on the number of reviews, number of favorites and number of follows on ff.net and based on number of hits, number of comments, number of kudos and number of bookmarks on AO3.  Keep in mind that the more chapters a fic has, the potential for more reviews and comments, especially if readers leave comments on every chapter.  So it is not an exact science but still gives you an idea of the popularity of a fic.  Also, I filtered for fics that appear to be primarily Everlark fics.

never forget what gary ross took from you.

The moment that foreshadowed their toastin happened in chapter 2! In chapter 2, Suzanne Collins told us, Katniss and Peeta will end up together. It was THEM always from the beginning.

When Peeta burned bread and shared it with Katniss when they were 11.

It was always going to be Peeta. There was no competition… anywhere.

The Games by Peeta Mellark

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/e8ZDsqQ

by pilatesandmilk

In his memoir, Peeta Mellark sheds light on the time he was reduced to a mere “tribute” rather than a person. At only 16 years old, Peeta Mellark was reaped for the 74th Hunger Games. The Hunger Games were created by the former Capitol as a way to keep districts in line after a rebellion; it required that two young-age tributes from the twelve districts participate in a fight to the death with only one “victor.” Mellark was subjected to this fate twice, being reaped two times with the girl he loved as the other tribute. The Games by Peeta Mellark is a heartfelt, remarkable memoir illustrating not only resilience but the importance of societal change. In his own words, Peeta tells us his story from start to present which includes his time in the games to balancing two teenage children today. With charming wit and honesty, Peeta Mellark captivates us with his detailed retellings and fun extras such as his famous cheese bun recipe and tips on how to make the most out of old oil paint.

In current times, Peeta Mellark has emerged as one of the most inspiring voices in the country through his activism. As one of the only former victors/survivors of The Hunger Games, Peeta Mellark serves as the Mayor of District Twelve.

the daisy jones and the six series changing the interviews to be 20 years later instead of closer to 40 years feels like such a weird, superficially aesthetic choice, where they get to keep the young, attractive actors (how did none of them age a day except graham??) instead of committing to the fact that these people are only able to reflect on these events because there's so much distance from them and they have perspective now (though it also means that memories are contradictory, contributing to the lack of reliability). it also does a massive disservice to camila, who instead of getting to live a long, happy life with her husband who stated that he always loved her and would always choose her, is basically turned into the second coming of the mother from how i met your mother – a pit stop to give the main, important man some kids to tell a story to before dying so he can be with his real soulmate before they're too old for it to be sexy

i feel like too many people (mainly daisybilly shippers) are conflating the "unreliable narrator" aspect of the book with "oh, no one told the truth about anything so we can make up our own completely different story and have it be canon!" instead of understanding that while there were probably times that the interviewees lied, a lot of what jumbles up their memories is the time that has passed, the weed that was smoked, and their personal feelings toward certain events (why you get daisy and billy gushing over the aurora cover that highlights only them while everyone else talks about how much the shoot sucked) (oh and the fact that reviews are mentioning that the rest of the band rarely appears in scenes w/o daisy or billy?? meaning that the series did what the characters in the book were constantly complaining about and relegated them to backup?? i must laugh to keep from crying) (also if they weren't even going to focus on everyone, why the fuck didn't they keep pete?)

Forever mad that they made The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo into a movie and Daisy Jones & The Six into a series when doing it the other way around made a lot more sense

I mean Daisy Jones is a mockumentary in written form and Evelyn Hugo should've had an episode per husband like what's not clicking????

Suzanne Collins straight up invented a whole marriage ceremony based around toasting bread on an open fire for your one true love just to then have THE BAKER'S SON LITERALLY BURN BREAD FOR THE GIRL ON FIRE

Absolute legend.

LEGEND.

I’m so interested in how people view the Hunger Games as a love triangle because while rereading gale and katniss’s relationship feels much less like “omg are they gonna get together” and much more like “this is a story about how a close relationship can completely fall apart”

help a broke depressed student out <3

hii! im collecting donations again cause i’m broke af and i can’t afford to pay rent and medication for depression, which is making everything hard for me. i can barely get out to go to uni and im missing out on so much study. i also feel physical pain which is making it really hard for me to just do normal tasks.

my parents will probably have to pay for university fees because of me not completing my exams - due to depression and depressive episodes - so if u have like 2$ to spare id really appreciate !! even a tiny reblog counts.

also shoutout to all the people suffering from mental illness or any kind of physical pain and disorders. i feel you. i know what it feels like to just not have the strength anymore to do simple stuff, like getting out of bed and staying hydrated, or even eating. i know how hard it can be and it makes me sad to know that most of our sanity depends on money - money which people in some countries don’t have access to. so i feel you, and i really hope we’ll get out of this !

please stay strong and don’t forget you’re not alone !!

here’s my p^ypal <3
