See, my sister bought the Hunger Games book today (yesterday, technically) and I thought why not give reading a try. So I flipped a random page and ended up near the end of Part II where they announced there was a rule change.
Within mere hours, I find myself completing the rest of the book, including all pages of the book that mentions Peeta.
The moment I read about him, I've been intrigued and captivated. He's the main and probably only reason I read the book - other than Haymitch.
There's something about Peeta and the more I read about him, the more I find myself falling for the character. This was way before I even had a glimpse of the actor who played the character - Josh Hutcherson, aka, one of the few actors who make me swoon and who fits the character perfectly.

I think the reason why I love him so much is because he is the closest specimen of my ideal partner. He practically fits all of the description from here. I'll elaborate for you:-
[Ps, this is my views after only reading the first book.]
1) Peeta is a very nice man(?). Mostly all the things he did was to help not him, but Katniss. He's kind and pretty much a romantic. Have you read the sweet things he uttered to Katniss? God! It makes me wish to be in her shoes so very badly
2) He is the exact person who one would be truly lucky to be friends with. He's loyal and will stay by your side no matter what and fits a lot of the things I wrote there in the description. The perfect best guy friend, don'tcha think?
3) I could imagine him doing this very easily. He does the cakes! - the iced ones, hahah.
4) He doesn't need tact cause he already has it. He's a natural charmer, smooth with words yet not an ounce of dishonesty in them.
5) Have you seen how much he loves and cares for both Katniss and people close to him?
6) Not sure how this would play out. Anyone care to make a headcanon?
7) Peeta's very smart - not counting the time he picked up nightlocks for him and Katniss to eat. I mean, he knows what blood poisoning is! Haha, if you'd read and remember, this would be much funnier... I hope. He's very witty, too. I remember the small conversation with Katniss where she points out that he could carry a hundred pounds of flour to which he replied with something like this, "Yes, and I’m sure the arena will be full of bags of flour for me to chuck at people" and made my tum hurt from laughter.
8) He has a very strong sense of himself. Remember how he said he didn't want to let them turn him into something he's not and that he would prove to Capitol that he's more than just a piece in their games. He isn't afraid to be himself, and I very much admire that.
Oh, I just can't put into words how much I love this guy. Tell me I'm not the only one who sports the PeetaXSelf pairing? ( = 3 =)
