S2 Blog Post #5

Now that I have both finished book one of the Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins and the first movies of the series, I can draw some new conclusions about their differences that I never could before. Don't go calling me a sinner for watching the movies first, it's just that I didn't exactly love reading before these past couple of years, (the first Hunger Games movie came out in 2012). Starting with the fact that in the movie Peeta doesn't even lose his leg! While he still gets a huge cut in it, he still finds a way to be able to keep it for the next movie. In the book, this was a huge shock that they had to get him a fake leg. Secondly, there is second to no mention of a red-headed Avox girl in the movie. The book makes it clear that Katniss is still guilty for not saving this girl when her and Gale could've. The most funny of my conclusions would be this; the Lamb Stew. This seemed like it was the THING in the book. Katniss loved it so much that they didn't even bother to make a huge deal about it in the movie. While most people are like me and are just too lazy to read the book, others chose a smart path because the movie leaves out a lot of details.

Time Spent Reading: 250 minutes
