Hector Kircher - I read the hunger games

-
I think the hunger games is probably the best novel I've written a blog post about. The book starts off with the main character living in district 12, which is the "worst" district, because it has only won 2 hunger games in 76 years. The rules of the hunger games are that each district picks 2 tributes, 1 boy and 1 girl, and all the tributes fight eachother to the death. The winning district gets lots of prizes, mostly consisting of food. Since district 12 almost never wins, the people there are constantly starving. Then, Katniss, the main character, is suddenly chosen as a tribute. The other tribute from district 12 is Peeta, and the two must fight the other tributes to death. The best part about this book has to be the world-building. This dystopian "system" of hunger gaming is extremely interesting, because even though the book only shows the point of view of district 12, I can kind of imagine what the other districts are like (I usually imagine the people from other districts saying "LMAO imagine losing to district 12 XDD"). Also, this defined system is perfect for making fake hunger games scenarios with other characters (which I know has been done by many other people before), and overall adds this kind of "letting the reader get creative" aspect to the book. 10/10

    Yeah, the Hunger Games was a pretty intense game of plotting and survival. I've read this book before ,but I've never really thought about the point of view of other districts on district 12. Now, I can definitely see another aspect of this book.
