Day 84 - The Hunger Games

The day is finally here where I take to you about The Hunger Games. For those of you who have never read The Hunger Games or those who have but forgot some of it or for those who have never heard of this book/movie here's what you need to know: So this book takes place after the destruction of North America. (I have know idea why North America is destroyed it just is.) There are 13 districts (the thirteenth was destroyed so now there is twelve) and a capital in the nation. Most of the districts are really poor but the capital is really rich. Each year there is this "game" called the Hunger Games where they pick one boy and one girl from each district and all twenty-four compete until there is only person left. They have the Hunger Games to remind the people about this revolt that they have way before their time. Anyway This girl named Katniss and a boy named Peeta are chosen for district twelve. Some how during all of this they become lovers and end up winning the whole thing but also start a revolt against the government and such. A whole lot more happens so if you have a test on this you my want to look on Wikipedia or go see the movie...
Recently because of the movie coming out The Hunger Games has become like the next Harry Potter or something. What really bugs me about this is people that would have never read in their lives have started to read this book only because of the movie. And then to make my life even worse all they will talk about is The Hunger Game. Some of us read the book before there was even talk about the movie. To make matters worse some of them start fighting over who some FICTIONAL character would like better. So please to make everyone's lives happier stop reading and go back to painting your nails or fighting over who Justin Bieber would rather date.
