People should read the Hunger Games because it is full of unexpected twists and turns. As a person who has read the Hunger Games several times I have never gotten tired of the storyline. This book has action and romance. For me personally i think the the action mixes well with the romance and there is not to much of either
his book series entertains, provokes and enthralls all at once. Not many books can mix adrenaline with more lofty synaptic stimulants.
The Hunger Games series shows how old habits die hard. People will continue old traditions even though they know that they are unfair and unjust. Discuss how the people in the different districts and the capital felt about the hunger games.
The Hunger Games series shows that good people can be especially cruel and violent if the situation allows for it or even demands it. The Hunger Games and then the civil war required some incredibly violent actions by people who were not "bad" people.
he Hunger Games shows that the ends justify the means and that if the final outcome is good, that makes the strategies, tools and actions getting there OK. The final tactic that won the civil war was the dropping of bombs on the civilian shield around the presidential mansion.
he Hunger Games shows that good leadership often requires morally questionable decisions and actions. Discuss 3 specific actions that the rebel president did or that Katniss did over the course of the books that was morally questionable.
The Hunger Games is meant to both entertain and instruct readers. If people would stop reading The Hunger Games as a fad, and would listen to what the story is trying to say, this book could humble our culture because it reveals how weak and evil man is. Thus, The Hunger Games, as a story, ultimately points to Christ because it shows the futility of man and the need for a Savior. Whether or not Suzanne Collins intended her books to point to Christ, they ultimately do because Collins does not provide a true solution to the problems she creates. Sadly, this message has been mostly wasted on empty minds that care only about the drama. For those who can see, though, let The Hunger Games serve as a reminder of our own sin and as a warning against pride in our frail accomplishments.
