The story of how she got Prim a goat.
When Peeta and Katniss are on the train, Peeta tell Katniss that before he left, his mother came to see him. These were Peetas words:"My mom said 'shes a fighter, that one.' she is! She meant you!"
Katniss and Peeta confronted Haymitch because he wasn't mentoring them. He was just sitting and drinking. They confronted him telling him that he needed to mentor him, and that they were fighters. This tells you that Haymitch didn't really mentor his tributes, as District 12 wasn't trained before The Hunger Games. They were too poor. But when Katniss and Peeta showed him that they were fighters and weren't willing to give up, he was willing to train them half sober.
Claudius Tempelsmith announces in the arena that two tributes will be aloud to win, if they are from they same district. Katniss finds Peeta and they Alley up until the end. When it gets down to three tributes remaining, Cato, Peeta, & Katniss, the Game makers send out mutts ,that are mutated from the dead tributes, into the arena to heat things up again. Cato, Katniss, & Peeta are chased into the cornucopia when a mutt cuts a gash in Peetas leg. Cato takes hold of Peeta and Katniss shots and arrow at Cato's hand, causing him to fall to his slow, painful death by mutts. Once Peeta and Katniss are the only ones left, Claudius Tempelsmith announces that they looked over the rule book and rules are rules. So out of an act of love/rebellion, Katniss pulls out night-lock and threaten for both of them to commit suicide. Just as the Berry's get in there mouths, Claudius Tempelsmith says "Stop! Stop! Ladies and gentlemen, i am pleased to present the victors of the 74th Hunger Games Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark! I give you-- the tributes of District Twelve!". Katniss and Peeta then spit out the night lock and are taken to the capitol. Before Peeta and Katniss are reunited on stage in front of the entire Capitol to be broadcast live to all of Panem, Haymitch tells Katniss that the Capitol isn't pleased with her and Peeta's attempt at double suicide, but as it was her idea, she'd be the one to pay the consequences. He explains to her that she must tell everyone that it was her love for Peeta that made her want to eat the berries in an effort to get the Capitol to believe that it wasn't actually an act of rebellion like they think, though Katniss is conflicted and does not know the real reason why she did it. On their way back home to District Twelve, Katniss hints to Peeta that the way she acted toward Peeta (in love) was "all for the games." Peeta becomes upset and hurt and escapes to his room on the train until they arrive home and must play the "star-crossed lovers" angle once again. Katniss misses Peeta, even in that short time, because she realizes she really does care for him but she's not sure in what way. She says she doesn't "want to lose the boy with the bread."
At the end of the first book, the ending is great but it leads into the second book of the trilogy, and then the second leads into the third. The part before the very ending of the third book is really good but the ending its self is pretty good but comes really fast.
