The Hunger Games

      I am reading a book called  "The Hunger Games " by Suzanne Collins. The main characters so far that iv known of are Katniss,Gale, and Prim. i know that Katniss is the older sister of Prim and close friend of Gale.Gale is older than Katniss and they both go to hunt for food to feed their family. They live in district 12 and every year their names get entered depending on their age and u can enter it a couple more times in trade for supplies and food. In the hunger games a boy and a girl tribute get randomly chosen from each district and go into the woods and its a survival game who ever survives last gets to go home and gets a years food supplies for their family. so far on what iv read is that that Prim got chosen as the girl tribute and Katniss stepped in and volunteered in place of Prim. I know that Katniss did not wish to be in the games but she would not let her little sister go in there and die. I would have done the same.

I FOUND SOMEONE ELSE

an important moment is when Ariel came to the hospital and said she saw it on the news and said she was late because she saw it and spend time getting ready and then she goes to Jericho and when Olivia and Dana see them Olivia gets sad because she likes Jericho and then he tells her that he doesn't want to be with her that he found someone else that he likes and that is better than her and she says who it cant be that whale because she is not better than me and i don't see anybody else here that u might be interested in and then he hold Olivia's hand and says its her and Ariel leaves out the hospital because no one backed her up and no one followed her out to see if shes okay.

already??

an important moment is when they're coming back from the football game and its 4 hours away from their home and on the way there November starts getting contractions and then she says shell be okay but then they think that they might be ready to have her baby and shes 2 months away from her due date. they stop at the rest stop to go to the restroom when  it turns out that shes in labor and they call the ambulance and the people in the buses from the football game and then the ambulance comes and they get her in a helicopter and Jericho had promised her hell be there with her and he didn't get to go with her and at the hospital allot of people and teachers stay there till morning in the waiting room to support her and hear from the baby. i chose this moment because its where the books been leading to, when shes ready to have her baby and i would think this is like the climax point because now is what every ones been waiting for and even though November wasn't due just yet she still has to make her decision on keeping her baby or letting J\oshs parents adopt it.

connection

November Blues connects to the book No more Sad Goodbyes. these books are alike because in November blues November finds out shes pregnant, she has one parent alive and doesn't know what to do she has an option of keeping her baby or giving it to her dead bf Josh's parents and in her pregnancy the dad of the baby isn't involved and she has her baby and keeps it.in No more Sad goodbyes Autumn is pregnant and doesn't know what to do, she had one parent alive and she first wants an abortion but then her dad and grandma die and she somewhat isn't able to get an abortion and then she wants to give it for adoption. at the end she chooses not to keep it and gives it to someone who doesn't want one and is able to take care of her. Both characters in these books have a very big decision to make and they both decide whats the best for their baby. both the baby's dads are not involved in the pregnancy, the main characters from both books experience death of a loved one.
