He is sarcastic, comical, sharp-witted, and determined to keep Katniss and Peeta alive. He's been in the magical land of sobriety for almost the entire book, and I feel like I finally know who he is. But in Mockingjay, Haymitch has been deprived due to District Thirteen's strict rules. Liquor, it seems, is the fuel that keeps the gears of his brain functioning. For the first two books, he has been operating and/or deciding important conclusions while under the influence. One of the couple of things that I really like about this book is Haymitch's character. Collins has amazed me with Catching Fire. The structure is well-constructed and just so full of dynamic scenes that will make you feel as though you have to establish a mighty grip on it before that specific moment passes. A war against the Capitol is emerging, and Katniss agrees to be the face of the rebellion, to be the Mockingjay. District Thirteen actually exists and its citizens have been functioning in an underground facility after all these years. By the end of Catching Fire, the second book, it is known that Katniss's fellow tributes, as well as Haymitch and the new Head Gamemaker Plutarch Heavensbee, has been planning to pull Katniss out of the Quarter Quell arena and striking up an already burning rebellion. The book begins with Katniss Everdeen looking at what remains of what once was District Twelve, her home. Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins is the third and final installment in The Hunger Games trilogy.
