Katniss and Peeta Combined Personality

Authors Note: The two characters, Katniss and Peeta, had different points of view in many situations throughout The Hunger Games although there were ways to combine them. 

In The Hunger Games, the starlight put on Katniss Everdeen makes Peeta feel like he's part of the shadows. Both of them were selected in the annual hunger games to fight to their death against other children. From the perspective of Peeta, events feel a lot more different than Katniss, the main character's, point of view. In most of the situations the two characters will have a different point of view. In the book The Hunger Games there are events that would be told differently from two different characters. 

One way Peeta's point of view could affect the interpretation is when he and his gang were chasing after Katniss. From the readers point of view it seemed as if Peeta had turned on Katniss and was now trying to kill her. What the reader didn't know was the fact that Peeta was really trying to protect Katniss. Another scene where the reader may get a different interperpretation is when Peeta announces to the fans that he has had a crush on Katniss since he was a little kid. This would seem like Peeta was was trying to make Katniss look like a weak person form Katniss's view. You can't really tell Peeta's real intentions from the story. Peeta's real intention was to try and make Katniss like him more. 

While Peeta's view made things seem different, there was a way the author could have mixed in Peeta's view into Katniss's view. For instance when Katniss made it seem like she really did have a crush on Peeta the author could have had Katniss speak her mind. The author could have had Katniss say something like " I like Peeta a lot just not in a relationship kind of way". This way we would no that their relationship in the games was just for show.

In the end Katniss and Peeta had a different point of view in several situations. Even though their point of view was different at some times; there was a way the author could have added both views to each other. No matter what you read you always have to think of how the other characters may be seeing the event.
