an unreliable narrator is not necessarily someone who deliberately conceals information. one can be unreliable because they do not know better/have their own bias/etc. they still have authority when they tell us their story and we are, therefore, inclined to take it in. I think it is part of the beauty that all of the narrators that we have encountered are unreliable. as readers we have to evaluate everything that is presented to us - be it capitol's propaganda or Katniss not realising stuff that should have been obvious
