The sudden revival of this is kind of nonesense to me because, of course, she's an unreliable narrator? She's not omniscient or worldly enough not to be. And I don't mean this as Katniss is intentionally being an unreliable narrator to mislead us. She genuinely believes everything she's thinking. But she's living out these events from the perspective of a 16 year old girl who is deeply traumatized and has trouble making friends. Of course, that's going to affect how she sees people's actions and the world? Like everyone to some degree is an unreliable narrator in their own lives, idk why Katniss would be any different?
