Second Post
Hey everybody! How you doin? Well i am about 15 pages away from finishing the Hunger Games and I cant believe how amazing this book is. Katniss, our hero, made an alliance with this little girl named Rue. This little girl may only be twelve but is amazingly fast and knows about as much about the woods and survival as those guys on the Dicovery Channel. The career tributes, aka the guys who have the total advantage in the games took all the food supplies on the begining. Well, Katniss and Rue really didnt think the careers had a chance if they didnt have all that food. So, Quite simply, they blew it up. There were mines sourrounding it so they trigged it using apples. But, this wasn't all as good as it seems. Rue got captured in a net of the careers and before Katniss could get an arrow through the killer, she died. I though that this was one of the saddest parts in a book that i have ever read. After crying for a while after the death of her companion, Katniss met up with the boy in her district, Peeta. Thety became a team but Peeta had saved her earlier and he had paid the price for it. HIs leg was cut up and they gave a real detailed description about it and it was pretty nasty. She had to go to the cournacopia were the Gamemakers, the peeps who controlled the game had all the suppliesd each trtibute needed. KAtniss got the supplies but not unmarked. She was cut in the head and this guy Named Thresh who was from Rue's district saved her and let her go. Well all these aother tributed died leaving only our heroes and Cato, the second highest ranked contender after Katniss. I think that Rue should have been higher ranked because she was so agile. They were driven toward the cornacopia and Cato cmomes crashing through the trees, followed by these creatures that were mutants from tyhe capitol. I thought that was an interesting fate for the tributes but i am not the author. So the tributes climb the cornacopia, but KAtniss notices that the beasts have a familiar feature. They are human. But not only human, they are the ded tributes that the capitol had made in order to kill them. I was shocked. I thought they sent the tributesd back to there district where they were properly burried. Thats just un- humane. Well Cato dies off an arrow to the head and the Gamemakers undo the rule that there can be two victors if they are frpom tyhe same district. A good rule, at least i thougght it was. So our heroes were going to kill eat these poison berries at the same time, but then ther gamemakers undid the rule so they won. It ain't over yet though, so i will talk about some other time. By
