The Hunger Games written by Suzanne Collins is a dystopian novel set in a post apocalyptic Earth. In the novel, North America has completely fallen apart from an Earth going through major changes such as sea levels rising dramatically, to brand new animal species that are vicious such as Tracker Jackers, and famine sweeping the nation. The result was the establishment of a new country known as Panem et Circenses meaning bread and circuses. In the country people would sacrifice personal freedoms we all take for granted in the US in exchange for food and entertainment even going extreme with some mandatory tv watching. Instead of states there would be 13 districts ruled by a prospering capitol. After district 13 was obliterated by the capitol for rebelling as punishment the capitol mandated the 12 remaining districts to send in 1 boy and 1 girl between 12 and 18 to compete in a reality tv show called The Hunger Games where contestants had to fight to the death. It looks obvious to why this book was on the banned list because of its violent content but there is more. One of the issues is it has a government that forces children to kill each other and most sectors are going through starvation.

That was very uncool.

Terrific, because you need to influence your descendents and shine through them Absolutely wanting to be the best Yolo, since you only live once Life, because what good is a life without the things you love Overally enthusiastic, sometimes it is just too much Restless, hyper most of the time, excited for a new fun day, ready to tackle the obstacles coming fat
Hello, I have to go work on Mrs. Crandall's project but first lemme take a selfie. I love nature so my picture is outside with a forest in the background. I have the chrome filter since it is very bright which represents my very bright and cheerful personality. I'm wearing a red clarinet t shirt since I love the clarinet section at my school and the section color is red at my school. I'm also wearing red because it happens to be one of my best friend's favorite color, and I love my friends.
