Reading Reflection #8

 

Book: MockingJay
Author: Suzanne Collins
Percent Read: 1% to 66%

So It begins. Over my winter break I was able to knock of the first two books in this wonderful trilogy, The Hunger Games, and Catching Fire. MockingJay is the third and final story that ends Katness Everdeen’s adventure in her escapades against the “Capitol”. This young woman at 17 is thrown into a battle for her life when her name is called for this first time is the seventy-fourth hunger games in the first novel, but as the books continue her story becomes more then her own need to survive. Katness is now responsible for not just her own life and the well being of her district, but also for the safety and protection of the remaining 11 districts. At the beginning of the novel you’re already hungry to know more. When she first wakes up dazed and confused in a hospital bed I right away predicted she would be on her way to Districts 13. In the previous novels it is clear that this destination was “No longer existent” but this is why my thoughts expand and come to the prediction that the story of Katness Everdeen is so much more than the typical. As I read on I find out her home in district 12 has been bombed and destroyed and she is heading to a rebellion camp in none other than the supposedly un inhabited district 13.  This sets of a huge turn in events since now these novels are much more than a bloody battle… It is a political warfare… This makes me come to the huge conclusion that the rebels hidden in District 13 will concur over the capital, but at what cost?
