review
The
book I read was called Catching Fire; by Suzanne
Collins is the author of the bestseller series of the Hunger Games. The
collection was named New York Times bestseller. Hunger Games, District 12
winning tributes where Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark now have a secure
life and have plenty of money for their families. The only problem is the
defying the rules when winning the Hunger games, and now they are going into a
rebellion against the Capitol. The ending is crazy some of the Districts get
destroy and you will be surprise which one does. The setting of the book is in north America
called Panem. Which District 12 is location. The characters are Katniss which
is the main character she is a beautiful girl was poor, but now is worthy. Then
you got Peeta who is son of a barker, and is very strong blod. You have gale
whom is Katniss best friend, and hunting partner. Buttercup is the ugly cat
that Katniss did not like at first, but know enjoys the company of the ugly
cat. You have Eiffie Trinket whom is the voice of the Hunger Games. The obstacles in the book are that Katniss is
worry that the Capitol is going to destroy her home for disabling the rules of
the Capitol. The tone of the book is the author is a very creative and I feel
like I was in their world at times. The themes of the book I that where love,
cougar, pain, and against all the odds I chose this thmes because I feel she
shows how one person can experience a lot of feeling at different times in his
or her lives.
After I readied the book I’m going
to be reading the last book because I feel there are so many more questions to
be answer with what going to happen next so far I know the Capitol got their
revenge on the District 12 I want to know what going to happen know Katniss has
lost her home from the Capitol. The theme I liked the most cougar because I
feel Katniss takes a stand for the people of District 12 when they were getting
most treated and she had a enough and the people have a uprising against them
the Captiol of cruse The first quote I chose is of peeta showing cougar. “Peeta keeps all of us in fresh baked goods. I
hunt. He bakes. Haymitch drinks. We have our own ways to stay busy, to keep
thoughts of our time as contestants in the Hunger Games at bay” (155). I like
this quote because it show what kind of person peeta is to Haymich which is
their master of the Hunger Games. The second quote I chose is “I wish that
Peeta were here to hold me, until I remember I’m not supposed to wish that
anymore” (121). I chose this quote because I show how much Katniss love, Peeta
even with the destruction that happen with District 12 from the Capitol. I
can’t compare this to the movie because it not out yet, but in my opinion I
thought the Hunger game movie was good, but the book is always better because
it have everything. You can only fit so much in a movie before it becomes
boring or stupid in my opinion. The movie has shape my life with how people can
go thought so much pain, and have love ones taking away and still remain
strong. There is a saying I like from a fames author which is kurt Vonnegut
“Life goes on” anybody how likes action
and adventure sound read the Hunger game series because it’s like a drug once
you read the first one you want to read them all.
