This was by far my favorite book of this class. At first I didn't really want to start but once I picked up the book I couldn't put it down. It was a book that moved at a pace that I liked. I ended up reading the entire book in the same day and I don't think I have ever done that. It also had a way to draw in the readers and keep them there. I am looking forward to reading the next two books whenever school work slows down. I saw they were on sale at borders and picked them up. The book goes well with the class in the aspect of how consumers can dictate how the system is set up and run. I feel that this book and 1984 and Feed go together very well in that aspect. Hunger games and 84 both had that extreme ruler that struck fear in the people. How you must obey the rules and if you don't the higher power will make sure you understand how the system works. Hunger games and Feed go together in that the people are directly involved with everything. People gave money to the Hunger Game people witch was of most appealing to them and the feed would show items of value to the people to purchased.
Hunger games reminded me a lot of the Stone Cold Steve Austin movie the Condemned. This movie had very dangerous people from all over the world fight to the death for freedom. People could log on and watch these event from where ever. Rather than medicine dropping from the sky weapons would fall down to make killing easier.
And March 2012 The Hunger Games Movie will be released! So I will be interested to see how Hollywood changes the book.Hunger Games Movie 2012

I am also interested in the movie coming in 2012! But I agree it was kind of hard for me to pick up at first but once I got into it I really liked it. Nice connection between the video and the book as well.
ReplyDeletei also thought it reminded me of the condemned, and i too think that the books talk all have people that are sort of fear stricken and forced to listen to a higher class.
