I have been lying a lot recently! About what puzzle will be up next, about my ability to meet my Monday upload for puzzles, and about making smaller puzzles. This is my longest puzzle ever. My justification is that lots of people have read the book multiple times, and many of the questions can be answered totally fine with just movie knowledge, there are only a handful of hard ones. So massive, 121 answers, but hopefully, the exposure of the book makes the puzzle less daunting. I do plan to have a puzzle up by Monday, it will be shorter, and it will be one of the ones I have previously mentioned (Truthwitch, Six of Crows, etc.).
My scanner has decided it hates my computer, and I was unable to locate another in a timely fashion, so I went back to the scanning app, the top lines are a little curved due to this, my apologies.
Last week’s puzzle was City of Ashes, and you can find a link to the answer sheet here! The next puzzle is for Truthwitch by Susan Dennard! Here is a link to that puzzle as well as the answer sheet for this one!
I hope you have fun doing my massive The Hunger Games crossword puzzle, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
Quotes
“He made me look 23 Across!” I say. “He made you look desirable!”
“When you open your mouth, you come across more as 34 Across and 76 Down.”
“You’re not afraid of 35 Across, are you, Katniss?”
may the 46 Across be ever in your favor,
“I 52 Across want to have kids,” I say. “I might. If I didn’t live here,” says Gale.
“I 66 Across an arrow at the Gamemakers.”
“That I’m more than just a 8 Down in their games,”
“Hey, Effie, watch this!” says Peeta. He tosses his fork over his shoulder and literally licks his plate clean with his tongue making loud, 11 Down sounds.
“So now that you’ve got me, what are you going to do with me?” “Put you somewhere you can’t get 32 Down.”
“It is an old and rarely used gesture of our district, occasionally seen at 37 Down. It means thanks, it means admiration, it means goodbye to someone you 84 Down.”
To this day, I can never shake the connection between this boy, Peeta Mellark, and the 103 Down that gave me 86 Down, and the 15 Down that reminded me that I was not doomed.
“Deep in the 104 Across, under the 109 Across
a bed of 19 Across, a soft 54 Across pillow
lay down your head, and close your sleepy eyes
and when again they open, the 62 Down will rise.
Here it's safe, here it's warm
here the 40 Down guard you from every 94 Across
here your 47 Down s are sweet and tomorrow brings them 100 Across
here is the place where I love you.
Deep in the 104 Across, hidden far away
a clock of leaves, a moonbeam ray
forget your woes and let your troubles lay
and when 39 Down it's morning, they'll wash away.
Here it's safe, hears its' warm
here the 40 Down guard you from every 94 Across
Here your 47 Downs are sweet and tomorrow bring them 100 Across
hear is the place where I love you.”
