Effie Trinket is a dynamic character‚ who plays a seemingly unimportant role in Suzanne Collins’ novel “The Hunger Games”. It is only seemingly unimportant because she supports the main character‚ Katniss Everdeen‚ and boosts her self-esteem before the Games‚ which contributes to Katniss’ victory. At first‚ one might be under the impression that Effie is shallow and egocentric. This is due to her deep caring for her appearance‚ which is shown by her explicit described dyed hair‚ her extravagant
