Independent Written Reflection

When I first picked up the hunger games I knew it was going to be amazing from all the great reviews people had given it. It seemed almost instantaneously that I got buried in the book, and at every moment I took time to read as much as I could. The story of life in the districts was interesting and made me appreciate the freedom that I have in America. I finished the book in 4 days while wrapped in my comforter with the book propped up on my knees till the sun rose. Every page was full of action with a clear image for you to form in your imagination. My favorite part is when Katniss drops the beehive on the careers because I was so amazed she figured ut a way to escape when it seemed hopeless. The only part I disliked about the book was how Katniss led Peeta on so much to the point where you just felt sorry for him. But I think that was part of trying to form the I have to say, some of the lit roles I actually enjoyed doing. Especially the illustrator and connector because I got to make my own personal connections to the novel. In a way I felt like the book held a lot of life lessons for me because I connected it to my life and my surroundings. Every moment was action packed and I don't think anything needed to be left out because everything had a deeper meaning. I'm already reading the next book because it leaves at such a big cliffhanger.
