In the Book The hunger games Katniss Everdeen faces overwhelming adversity when she finds herself found in the clutches of the capital stuck in the hunger games. Katniss is able to overcome this adversity by having strong characteristics like her intelligence, resourcefulness and being courageous, these characteristics will be discussed throughout the essay outlining exactly why these characteristics help katniss in the games.

“ I volunteer, I volunteer as tribute.” Says Katniss Everdeen, the main character in my book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins . Has someone that you love ever been in danger? Prim Rose Everdeen has been chosen as the girl tribute for district 12. Her older sister Katniss volunteers in her place because of how much she cares about her . Katniss Everdeen is Prim’s sister and also the main character in the book “The Hunger Games.”, by Suszanne Collins. This an action packed distopian book that show what the world could be like in the upcoming years if we don’t fix our culture. I believe that Katniss is a brave and courageous person and that love for someone can overcome anything.

Katniss Everdeen is the main protagonist in Suzanne Collin's trilogy: The Hunger Games. She is highlighted by her responsibility, loyalty, morality, bravery, independence and her compassion towards others. Katniss becomes the victim of her totalitarian government and unwillingly becomes the center of a revolution. The hunger games trilogy tells the story of war and its effects on the innocent. Katniss’ strong qualities shine through the suffering of realistic consequences and outcomes. Her qualities of strength and bravery along with immense compassion is something I search to achieve.

In the books, the main character, Katniss Everdeen, stands up against the totalitarian government that she lives in. While initially she doesn’t want the role of a national hero, she eventually decides to take on the challenge to give her loved ones a better life. Katniss faces challenge after challenge to defeat the highest power in the government, President Snow. Katniss’ decision to stand up against the government ultimately leads to consequences, such as the death of her little sister due to bombs, but it also leads to her future with her own family in a better

The infuriated president of Panem, President Snow, didn’t see actions taking place in order to eliminate Katniss, which was his bidding. Therefore, he plans to get his revenge by spreading chaos across Panem, until Katniss’ world has been reduced to rubble. So, in an act of fighting back, Katniss must become Panem’s Mockingjay, the symbol of rebellion against the Capitol, no matter what the personal cost.

This is an excellent book. Rick Yancey, author of the Printz-Honor winning Monstrumologist series and The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp, has delivered a remarkable tale that manages to revitalize the idea of an alien invasion, in which the aliens are brutally efficient without ever apparently leaving their space ship in orbit around the Earth. Thanks to the constant paranoia, the knowledge that no one can be trusted, this book is terrifying on a level that few other novels aimed at teenagers are able to be. Although, admittedly, this book does not have any truly original ideas, all the elements it takes from other novels are pieced together in a way that makes them uniquely its own, and the characters are so strong that you do not care about any

The epic global phenomenon of “The Hunger Games” arrives at its powerful final chapter with “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2″ – in which Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) now fully realizes the stakes are no longer just for survival, they are for the future. With the nation of Panem in a full scale war, Katniss Everdeen confronts President Snow in the final showdown. Teamed with a group of her closest friends – including Gale, Finnick and Peeta– Katniss goes off mission, using the unit from District 13 – and risking their lives – to stage an assassination attempt on President Snow increasingly obsessed with destroying her, the mortal traps, enemies, and moral choices that await Katniss will challenge her more than any arena she faced

Suzanne Collins “The Hunger Games” details to the adventure of Katniss Everdeen who is forced to engage in a fight-to-the death tournament. The readers might not strongly relate to games or arena idea. However, what goes on in the character’s lives is very relatable. Collins specifically has the readers relate to Katniss (id take this out, too repetitive) by writing the book from a first perspective point of view. Readers sympathize with Katniss as she is self-sacrificing, her family depends on her to survive and she helps give rights and freedom to people in order to restore peace.

In Suzanne Collin’s trilogy The Hunger Games, the story focuses on the journey and struggles of sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen within the dystopian society of Panem. Throughout the books, Katniss is torn between choosing to fight the injustice and tyranny that has long been a problem for the people of Panem, or to give in to the power of the Capitol in order to keep herself and more importantly her family safe. In the end she rises up and without really intending to, becomes the hero that has long been needed in order to create change in her society. Katniss is like a modern day Robin Hood, because she stands up for and ultimately leads the common people in a revolution against the oppressive Capitol, despite it putting her and her loved ones at risk for the greater good.

Katniss Everdeen is a female tribute from District 12 and she is the main character from my chosen novel. Katniss volunteered on behalf of her sister Primrose Everdeen's and took her place in the 74th Hunger Games after Prim's name was called during the selection of tributes from District 12(Collins 21). Originally, Katniss had no intention of going into the games, but she did not think that she is going to participate as female tribute in the games. In order to understand Katniss, we must understand her relationships with Gale, her sister Prim, her mother and Peeta. Katniss father died when she was 11 years old, following the death of her father, her mother went into a deep depression which left Katniss solely responsible for taking care of herself and her sister Prim.

Within The Hunger Games Chapter 1, a novel excerpt written by Suzanne Collins, Katniss Everdeen is confronted with the selection of her younger sister in the Hunger Games, an event wherein life is treated as a privilege and adolescents are forced to kill each other in order to survive the vicious ordeal. Throughout literature, protagonists are portrayed in different ways, contrasting in how effectively they fulfill their roles as a prominent figure in their respective stories. Consequently, Katniss is the most effective protagonist due to characterization. She has an eudaemonic nature in regards to her loved ones, as shown in, “How could I leave Prim, who is the only person in the world I’m certain I love?” She has an opportunity to escape

In The Hunger Games, the heroine of the movie, Katniss Everdeen, has many decisions to make that can greatly affect her life. The three most crucial decisions she makes in the movie are volunteering for her sister, Primrose, at the reaping, taking care of Rue, and working together with Peeta. Since this movie takes place in a dystopian setting, I will be using morality from our world. For example, it is more normal to murder somebody there than it currently is here. The first big decision that Katniss makes is volunteering for her younger sister, Primrose, at the reaping.

The characters, especially Katniss, were constantly hopeful in this story to help the rebel cause. Many of these characters have had first hand experience with the wickedness of the Capitol. They were in the middle of war that had a very high likelihood of a defeat, yet they always had hope for a brighter future. Katniss was giving a speech to the members of District 2, who were

Katniss would want nothing more than to be home with her famiy, while the other contestants would want nothing but to murder as many people as they possibly can. I believe that this shows Katniss’s code of ethics, she isn’t there to kill but to survive, and do whatever it takes to survive. She is not there for fun and unnecessary bloodshed. During her adventures in the hunger games she meets a young tribute girl from one of the lower districts that was extremely unlucky to be chosen. Katniss helps this girl survive, she gives her food, shelter, and water.

The Hunger Games is a you adult novel that takes place in a dystopian society in North America called Panem that forces their 12 Districts to send a boy and a girl once a year to a televised event known as the Hunger Games. Everyone is obligated to watch as the teens fought to the death until only one remains standing. Katniss Everdeen volunteered herself into the Games when her little sister, Prim, was chosen. Along with the male tribute, Peeta Mellark, she goes to the Capitol to be trained and prepared before they are sent to the Arena.
