Hunger Games

Hunger games has the same idea of survival and character building that lord of the flies and the most dangerous game has. In the case of Hunger Games, the author managed to create a whole world, history and lore to compliment the story at hand. The history of the characters and the history of the world they live in gives more significance to their situation and survival. Katniss not only fights for survival, but draws on prior history, or flashbacks to help her get to her goals and return to those who she loves. This also helps us understand her relation to the other characters, and her justifications. This story also promotes a lot about rebellion, standing against authority and many Marxists concepts. Which is interesting to see in a book for younger audiences. Personally I did not enjoy the hunger games. It didn’t appeal too much to me.
