"Mockingjay" by Suzanne Collins
For this blog post, I'm going to shortly answer a few prompts. I have not gotten farther enough in my book from the last week to be able to do the same type of post as last time. So, what real life issues are reflected in the text? Well, there is war and revolution. Both which are real life issues. Although our real life wars may not be the same as in the text, it is reflected in the book, but a little over exaggerated. What does the work tell us about how people behave? It shows that if if people are not happy and dont get what they want, they revolt against something for a change. In the book the districts are not happy, so they revolt. How has a character changed since they were first introduced? In the first book The Hunger Games, Katniss was a nobody. She lived quietly in district 12 and did her duty. But now in Mockinjay, Katniss is a leader, and not to mention she got out of not one, but two hunger games alive. Her personality has gone from cowardly and afraid to fierce and confident. I would really like to have a conversation with Katniss and ask her how she got over her fear and was able to stay as strong as she was throughout this entire journey.
