Hunger Games Response

Currently reading the Hunger Games, all I can say is, this book is crazy. So many wild things happen. You have romance and danger and suspense. I kind of have some responses to these things.

Its a sick and sadistic Game. Things have to happen or the Capitol makes it happen. You can never be boring. You can look as cocky as you want, but that might just get you killed. Sure you can put on an act, but you have to be careful about it. Getting things from sponsors all depends on how good and likable you are. The Hunger Games themselves aren't about beauty. They're about survival. You have to be strategic about these Games.

As bad as it is to kill people, you have to remember, killing them insures your survival. Either you kill, or get killed. Katniss is being strategic about the way she goes around the Arena. She tries to avoid killing people, unless she has to. She's spent almost her entire life in the woods, so she knows how to get around. She can  hunt, find game, and get whatever else she needs. When you think about it, Katniss is almost a sure to win. If only she could avoid the killing . The Hunger Game sare pretty intense.

I feel mad and sad and happy at the same time. I'm  mad because the Career's are using Peeta to get to Katniss. Sad because I know one of them will have to die. Happy because they're both survivng in the Games. Theses are my responses to the Hunger games.
