The book I chose for this assignment is Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. This is the second book to the Hunger Game series and it was the most different from the other two books. This book was basically the aftermath of the hunger games and it was for all the people who have already won the hunger games. It's about how all those who've won the hunger games before are now going to go back to fight each other. This idea made everyone upset because once you play in the hunger games once, you don't go back. For a better chance in surviving, Katniss and Peeta decide to team up with other people so as the others are getting prepared, they are looking for people to team up with.
What was your personal reaction to this reading selection?
I was kind of surprised to the fact that the capital would want people to fight again. They're making people who have already killed to survive go back to win again.
What did you believe the author's intent was, and what patterns of organization did you observe?
The author's intent was to grab the readers attention and to give you a surprise you wouldn't expect. She wanted the readers to be more interested and to want to know more on what was going to happen. The one pattern of organization I observed was that the author used cause/effect.
