Fire. Katniss realizes that the fire is no accident: it must be a ploy by the Game makers to flush out the scattered tributes and bring them all together. She asked why? in her mind. Fire became bigger and bigger so dangerous. Katniss is wracked with fearful nightmares: Prim dying, her father too. When she at last wakes, she is damp, in a hole filled with leaves. She was wondering how long she has been out. She started thinking about her friends, and she was confused thinking about boys stuff. Katniss and Rue hunted animal to eat.

There are four tributes at the base: a boy from District 1, Cato, a girl from District 2, and a guy from District 3. Next plan is Rue sets a fire some distance off to lure the Career Tributes away from the camp.

What is the setting of the novel? Is the setting important or could the novel be happening anywhere? Why? Today, a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem. a Capitol surrounded by twelce outlying dirictsl. it is about fighting, so the main character must be sad and angry sometimes, because her friends dies. How does the author get you to read on or hold your interest? At the first part of this book, I thought it is boring, because there is nothing interesting happen except the setting of the main character is a poor. She just introduces her family and a place where she lives. But when i came in the middle part of the book which I just wrote is very interesting. Katniss participates the game and there are some fighting. Someone dies, and action stuff. I could see the raising action. First it is introduction about around the main character and itself, the first part is always boring and it will become interesting and more interesting, it shows you a raising action. What new things are added to the original problem as the novel progresses? As they start fighting, many people were killed. Katniss made new buddy Rue. They act together, made some thieir plans to kill other groups. When they were spread, Katniss heard screaming, so she fllowed it, it was Rue screaming. She go in the net and a spear through Rue, and Katniss saw her dying. What plot twists or unexpected events happen as the novel goes on? When Rue died, and Katniss and Peeta got more along and act together, because Peeta was in the Career'a group, and Katniss was going to kill them. Also Katniss was wondering why Peeta saved the info about the Career and thought Peeta is totally on the Career's side. But they became team, and helps each other.

Section 4 chap 17-23 Rue fired the camp and that means Rue is running out, it is Katniss's turn. Katniss hides bush to see what will happen. Katniss went to the place which Rue must be setting tired fire. Katniss was a little bit panicked, because that means Rue might be killed by someone in the Career. She fllowed where screamed from. Katniss found her, Rue was in the net she was trapped. suddenly Rue screamed "Katniss" and the spear went through her. The boy from Direct 1 killed Rue, so Katniss shoot him with arrow. Katniss gathers lots of floor around Rue. Katniss realized Game maker changed the rule.Katniss met Peeta. Peeta has a fever so Katniss thought he cannot move far. She keep watch him night, and Peeta's fever is down. Katniss was think of her family. Katniss left the place and she went to the old place which she was hiding. There is fighting going on. She is injured now. When Katniss wakes up, Peeta was nursing her. It is raining outside. Peeta does not seem he s understands but Katniss talkedabout it, tears falling down her cheek. Katniss asked Peeta when he got crush on her, and he told her everything. Kstniss was happy and confused. Katniss first thought Peeta is acting like nice guy but she realized Peeta is actually nice person. Peeta still likes Katniss, he crushed on her when he saw her first day of school, since then he likes her. Katniss still wonders why Peeta did not tell anybody about the Career. They start talking about Haymitch. He is the winner of this game. They wonder how he won the game. When they finish eating, they went to sleep. Katniss talked about she does not show people her private, so when she sleeps, she put her hood on, because the camera is still on. She thought if she win, she would do something for Trash, because Trash saved hr life, and Rue's family. When Katniss wake up with some noise. There were apple tart, and goat cheese which Peeta made. Peeta used to make apple tart and goat cheese at bakery, but it is expensive to eat at Peeta's family, because Peeta was not that rich. Katniss reminds Prim, because Prim always makes goat cheese. Katniss teachs Peeta bird whistle, because Katniss and Rue use to use bird whistle to let know that they are arrive. Katniss was away from Peeta. Katniss whistled, but Peeta didn't answer, so she thought someoce killed Peeta. She was panicked, she scream Peeta loud. Katniss and Peeta saw each other. Katiss sort out her feeling. She asked Peeta why he did not whistled. He did not hear. Katniss is still mad at him. Everything Peeta says, she answered angrily, and sometimes she shouted. Comment on the style of the novel. Is it easy or hard to follow the events? It is not hard to fllow the events, because it is made for teenager so its interesting and not that hard. It takes me some minutes to understand. Is the language in the novel difficult or easy? GIve examples and explain. Yes, it is hard. Even it is book for teenagers, there are some hard word that we do not use often. I think I have hard time to understand or see so many new word is that I don`t know the words even it is easy. so it is hard for me. To what age group is the novel aimed? Support your answer with evidence. I think it is for teenager, because it is about people who is still young survivals for the show, they kill people to be a victor. It is pretty violent, but it is not too violent so I thought it is good for teenager. Also for the words, It does not uses that use of hard wards that teenager wouldn't learn. Teenager especially girls likes LOVE story, in that book there are some love stories so I think they would like it.

Section 5 chap 24-27 Kaniss and Peeta started to make fire. They went back to cave and wne into bed. Katniss was thinking about Cato and his crazed tantrum when he lost the supply pyramid. She thought Foxface is most smartest tribute out there. The next day they head to find the stream. The gamemakers must drive them to the lake " blooding fight to the death". There was Cato weraing Armor. There were big wolves, so they try to escape from them. Cato reaches the top first, then Katniss, Kstniss helps Peeta to reaches the top. The wolves eyes looked like humans. It is human. They use dead human, and the make human to be in the wolves, so that is why Katniss thought it looks like humans. Katniss and Peeta decided to fight with the wolves, Cato came behind Peeta. Blood is coming out from Peeta`s leg, he is losing his blood, whch means he might die because of losing his blood. Katniss rip her part of shirt and rapped to his leg. Peeta signals Katniss to kill Cato, which he does. After she killed Cato, they push him back into the place where the wolves are. It was nightmare to them to see it. But the Gamemaker wonn`t say finish, because entertainment is not done yet, the game is still on. At the night, Katniss and Peeta was just sitting. Katniss suddenly grabs a poisonous berries, because each one of them has to die to win. Peeta gets her idea, and he also grabs berries. When they were going to put it in their mouth, someone shouted. He came here to tell them a winner of this Game. And It was Katniss and Peeta. Doctors took them to the hospital, because they are in danger. When Katniss wakes up, she was naked, and her body was all cleaned. Cinna chose dress for Katniss. Haymitch told Katniss that Peeta was "already there". Katniss wondered what that means. Katniss saw Peeta from few yeads away from her. He looks clean, health, and beautiful. Katniss is very happy. She takes 3 step forwards, and run into Peeta's arms. They kissed and had little chat. After 10 minutes,Caesar Flickerman taps o his shoulder to continue the show. After that, Haymitch interrupts them and gives them a good natured shove toward the victor's chair. Usually, this is a ingle, but this year the games victories are 2 so the gamemaker provided one more red couch. Katnis stars talking how she thought when she saw people dying. She felt horrible. After saying it. Katniss has to take interview. Katniss talks little bit about Carsar Flickerman in her mind to just remind what his personalty is. Katniss is can not really answer about herself. When Caesar Flickerman asked Katniss when she reaized that katniss fell in love with him. She could not answer. Suddenly Caesar Flickerman covered her to answer that question instead of her answering it. He is nice. When it is time to say good-bye to everyone and finish this game. Katniss and Peeta huged Cinna to say good-bye. They went into trains. They talks about everything that happened in the past. Katniss already miss Peeta. katniss knew even though they are in fall in love, they can't marry so she is going to say she miss him, but she thought it is not fair of her part so she just put that in her mind. When they get off the train. They hold their hands together, and Katnis holds it tight.

Is the novel believable? No it is not believable, because I can see it is fiction. I don't think there is a show that shows people dying or kill each other. Otherwise, it is pretty believable. I know there is a survival show which makes people exciting. Why would you (or why wouldn't you) recommend this novel to a friend? I would recommend this novel to a friend, because it is pretty interesting book that teenager would like. There are some killing part, fun part and pretty adventure part. In this book, there is some very important that people should know. About love, their love is pure. Thinking of their family and friends, Responsible, and survival. Why did (or didn't) the novel meet your expectations? I expect when I came to the part which Rue died, I wondered what Katniss will do with it. I expect if Katniss is going to kill people, and If Katniss and Peeta were fall in love.
