Hunger Games

I really enjoyed reading this novel, before seeing the movie. I never wanted to read this novel, just wanted to see the movie, because i didn't wanted to read some three hundred pages, but i read it and found it to be a very strong story, that entertains the reader, for the moment it begins the book til the end, it leaves you wanting to read it again and again. I didn't like the theme to use reality-show, because i have found that no realism in reality television, everything you see is not entirely the truth, you only see like a quarter layer of truth that has been presented to you, but all you really see is fantasy versions of one self. I find the aspect of having the games presented to the audiences as reality television weak, because people will lie to make themselves look a certain way that when you look hard enough, is not their real selves. And you see what people will do, in order to have the sympathy of the public, and place themselves above of the other contestants. I really enjoyed the book, because is not your traditional science fiction story, there's no aliens, there's no technology that plays great part of the plot, even though, the idea of having to kill a human being in order to survive, doesn't sit well with me, but the overall plot of the story intrigued me since the first page.
