Katniss 'Love In The Hunger Games' By Suzanne Collins

The power of love in Harry Potter is unlike any other. So much so that it is an overwhelmingly significant and recurring theme throughout the entire series. From the self-sacrificial love of Lily Potter to the loving mother Molly Weasley to the unrequited love of Severus Snape. There is also the misunderstanding, or the absence, of love; which is equally as important in the novels. Especially since it was the main difference between Voldemort and Harry that was incredibly essential to the storyline. So essential that J.K. Rowling went out of the way to tell us about it in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone when Dumbledore said, “if there is one thing Voldemort cannot understand, it is love” (229, SS). The concept of love is woven so inextricably within the very fabric of the novels, that it continues to challenge the reader all the way until the very end.

The Hunger Games, a novel by Suzanne Collins, is the story of 16 years old, Katniss Everdeen, who fights to death for her district. The Hunger Games is an event hosted every year by the Capitol of Panem, where a randomly chosen boy and girl both need to represent each of the twelve districts that the capitol is composed of. When Katniss little sister, Prim, is chosen to be the representative for District twelve, Katniss volunteers to take her place and fight along her male counterpart, Peeta. The reason I choose this book for my book report is because Katniss is not your typical 16 year old girl. Not only is she her family’s provider but she’s also skillful, strong, rebellious, and unsentimental heroine. These are characteristics that society would mostly link to a 16 year old boy rather than a girl.

Economics is the study of scarcity within a systems of rules. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins’ can be translated into such, with hunger being scarcity and games being a system of rules. In the Hunger Games, we are introduced to a country called Panem. The country of Panem is divided into twelve different districts and the Capitol, where the government resides. Each district has their own different specializations and they have distinctive economies. The government regulates the trade and each district rely on trade from each other district and the Capitol for the goods they don 't produce. All of the districts and the Capitol is interdependent.

(2) “Buna is a very good camp. One can hold one’s own here. The most important thing is not to be assigned to the construction Kommando.” This may not seem like much, but this affects the story a great amount. It affected Elies life, and whoever was near him a great deal. It would be different if the inmate’s hadn’t brought this up because Elie wouldn’t have known to avoid it, what if Elie thought it was a good idea to get into the construction Kommando? Then he might have not survived. It could have made a grave alter. The Inmate who had said this is a life saver. He probably wasn’t around to even find out.

When you are growing up your surroundings influence the choices you make and how you grow up. The four text I studied are a short story “On the Sidewalk Bleeding” written by Evan Hunter, a novel “The Hunger Games” by Susan Collins, a film “Remember the Titans” directed by Jerry Bruckheimer and lyrics composed by Cat Stevens. These four texts express the theme of “how surroundings can influence your choices when growing up”

at the start of this part, Katniss is very ill and misses Peeta very much.President Coin,the president of district 13,asks her to be the Mockingjay,the face of the rebellion.As District 12 was destroyed ,few people who survived the attack including Prim and their mother and Gale and his family,now live in 13.Katniss agrees to become Mockingjay on some conditions like she and Gale will go alteast an hour for hunting,Peeta's and other tributes's immunity,the permission to keep their cat,Buttercup.When she becomes Mockingjay,she has to prepare for propos.She normally thinks that Peeta is or will be dead by now.Then a Capitol programme airs in which Peeta is interviewed.Katniss is happy to see that Peeta is alive.Then she has to go to different

In the Hunger Games, Katniss sacrifices her life for her family and friends. For example, District 12 chooses Katniss's younger sister Prim to compete in the Hunger Games. Katniss does not want her sister to fight because she is too young to go through all this pain, so she says “I volunteer!” I gasp. “I volunteer as tribute" (Collins 20)! Katniss does this because Prim is twelve years old, so any kind of suffering or violence will most likely result in her dying during the Games. On the other hand, Katniss is four years older, has years of experience hunting, and is far less sensitive than her sister, making her more likely to survive the battle. Another example of sacrifice in the Hunger Games is towards the end of the novel when Katniss helps Peeta when he gets infected. Katniss tells Peeta, “You’re not going to die… Let’s get you in the stream, wash you off so I can see what kind of wounds you’ve got" (Collins 240). This quote shows sacrifice because Katniss is taking her time to save her friend's life because they care about each other. She puts her life at risk to help Peeta because he is severely wounded, not because she wants to become popular. Therefore, Katniss is considered a hero because of her sacrifice for her family and her

People want to team up with her and they are nice to her so she teams up with district,3,4,7.

On page 22, the reader notices a contrast and contradiction because Katniss, who seems like she is very serious, shows the loving side of her. “‘I volunteer,’ I gasp, ‘I volunteer as tribute.’” This quote exemplifies how Katniss would rather die herself than to see her sister die in the arena. So she does something that rarely ever happens in district twelve - she volunteers as tribute. By volunteering, she is sacrificing her life for Prim, her sister, who was supposed to fight to the death in the arena. To add, on page 32 Katniss has a memory moment back to when she was younger and her father had just died about a month earlier. The quote on page 32, “To this day, I can never shake the connection between this boy, Peeta Mellark, and the bread that gave me hope,” shows that before the games there is a clear connection between the two; Peeta sacrifices bread for not only Katniss, a young, hungry girl, but he is really sacrificing for the greater good of humanity in District 12. It is more than just giving a loaf of bread to a starving girl. In actuality, he knows that people need

Is society capable of living in a flawless world, in a true utopia? In Sir Thomas More’s novel, Utopia, a paradisiacal island is depicted containing a faultless society. Since the release of this work in 1516, countless authors have used this idea to create their own perfect worlds. The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins, is a prime byproduct of More’s utopia. However, the key difference between both novels is the intended creation of a utopia or dystopia. Collins understood that her text portrayed a true dystopia whereas More believed his world to be a utopia. Throughout each text, there are numerous comparisons between both societies which makes the reader ponder how similar and different the two worlds are.
