...'appetite' for media coverage? With her book, "The Hunger Games".
Is Suzanne Collins successful with making comments about our society and our appetite for media coverage? Please explain, and give me atleast 3 good reasons why or why not. I read the book, its for summer reading, and its a really good book IMO, but I really have no idea how to answer that question. I didn't notice the underlying themes in the book with relation to the question.
Please give examples (quotes, paragraphs, page numbers, and/or etc) from the book that like support what you say. I know that some people hate when people ask homework questions, but I really did think about it for almost a week now and I'm getting nervous cause school is starting soon, and I can't think of anything! You don't have to write too much if you want, like general stuff basically. but the best answer gets 10 pts and 5 stars.
Also, we have to make connections w/ this book to other texts and the media. I'm guessing that this book would be similar to the book called Animal Farm, and the shows on tv like Lost & Survivor. The bad thing is that I haven't read that book or read those kind of shows.. so I don't know how to really make a connection. please help me with that! Maybe if you help me with the other things I mentioned, this 'connection' part will be easier for me to put together. maybe i can relate it to like tabloids, the news, or reality shows.. but i just need the base question answered first to be able to start putting things together.
sorry this is long-ish! whoever helps is the bestest person evaaaaaaaa and i love you, you saved my life, blah blah blah, lol. (but seriously)
