Hunger Games By Suzanne Collins

My favorite piece of writing was the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I read this book in seventh grade, with my english teacher, Mrs. Taylor. This novel was one of the most interesting pieces of writing I have ever read. The plot had tons of depth and never failed to surprise me, such as the love triangle between Peeta, Gale and Katniss. This made the book super interesting as I never knew who she was going to choose. Going off of this, the way Collins explained the characters was another reason I loved this book. It almost felt as if I knew them in real life. Collins also explained the districts in a way that pulled me in. The inequality between the districts amazed me and made me want to read even more to find out why this was present. Overall,

In the book, The Hunger Games, one of the main events is when Katniss volunteers for her sister, Prim, to participate in the annual Hunger Games. After reading this event, I was very surprised. I noticed that Katniss surprised herself by saying she would volunteer, but then quickly recovered once she remembered that the reaping would be shown on television. “…this is upsetting me and I don’t want to cry. When they televise the replay of the reapings tonight, everyone will make note of my tears, and I’ll be marked as an easy target.

Second it was a very good book. It was good mainly because it makes you like the characters more and more over time so when they die it makes you sad and it puts a lot of emotion into the book. That is good because a lot of books don 't have that. Those

After getting a couple of chapters in, the story really started to pull me in.

The book I chose to read was “The Glass Castle” by Jeanette Walls. “The Glass Castle” was memorable because it gave me an idea about the diversity of each person. The story was told through the perspective of a young girl who does not understand right from wrong because she believes what her father tells her. I think this book is popular because it expressed ideas that are typically thought of as wrong or ideas that many turn away from. The author included outstanding imagery that puts the reader into the shoes of the main character.

I am glad I have read this book and I have learned so many new things. It transitions between regents in the past and present really smoothly and moves the story along nicely. The dynamics between the characters were really enjoyable as well. I liked how Colleen vaguely hints about random details we don't think much of as a reader, then specific detail turns out to link to a huge turning point in the plot. Her use of motifs is page-turning.

Lastly, I liked this book because it gave me an insight of what my life could be like when I get to college. About halfway through the book I was questioning what the author was trying to portray. Honestly, I did not fully figure it out until the end of the book. Towards the beginning I thought that maybe it was going to be about him helping a very shy kid come into the light.

When an author writes a book or a novel, they were impacted or inspired to write it. Past and present experiences can impact an author’s writing and inspiration can come from anywhere at any time like watching a show on tv close to midnight. The inspiration for writing a book can come from anywhere like watching a show about people competing for money or watching footages from the war in Iraq. Suzanne Collins developed the Hunger Games series on these current inspirations and also from her relationship between war and media.

Crisis: good vs. bad The statistic of crises that occurred after the WWII is tremendous: 139 financial crisis occurred in the period between 1973 and 1997, while just 38 crisis occurred in the period between 1945 and 1971. According to (Dicken, 2011), 255 recessions disrupted 17 western economies in the period from 1870 to 2006, while two-thirds of them lasted less than one year, and 33 of them endured over two years. After the “golden age” and economic growth period from the early 1950s to the early 1970s, the world economy´s patter was uneven with lots of growth (1950s to 1960s, 1994-1995, and 2000s) and recessions (1990s, 1998-1999) (Mitra, 2012). Moreover, the collapse of the banking system in 2008 has been the biggest global economic crisis
