The blue represents hope and the circles, that have been on all three books backgrounds, represents the 13 different districts and that the broken circle might represent district 13.(?) Also in the other covers the bird has been sort of....squished, and in this one the birds wings are spread out and is flying freely. I think this represents Katniss and that in this book she won't be repressed by the Capitol or Haymitch or anybody.<br /><br />I cant wait until August!!<br /><br />*Team Peeta*Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11442396202298308219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897777812787333518.post-80858863179521152802010-02-14T22:43:22.667-08:002010-02-14T22:43:22.667-08:00wanted midnight blue. but artwork is good.

I expected a burnt orange, or even a yellow. something fierce and/or dark. maybe the blue is supposed to represent peace? since the other books have had darker colors and have been more about rebellion and violence?<br /><br />I don't know.

It makes me think of victory, of a happy ending.<br /><br />About Peeta or Gale... It's not fair following a team, because we know Peeta much more than Gale. Anyway, I also prefer Peeta to stay with Katniss :)Alejandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11066032060934528007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897777812787333518.post-33166675876582050872010-02-13T07:28:41.324-08:002010-02-13T07:28:41.324-08:00I actually like the cover.

I actually really like it, though it was <i>nothing</i> like what I was expecting. I think I figured they'd go with a gold or something like that to sort of pull the two previous covers together.

The paleness of the blue contrasts very much with the last two book's dark covers. Maybe the ending will be more hopeful and the light cover conveys that?
