The book I am currently reading is the Hunger Games book 2, Catching Fire By: Suzanna Collins. The two significant elements in this book is suspense and following Katniss Everdeen in the book.
Katniss Everdeen is the main character of the book and it is important that we see the story through her eyes. We as readers get attached to characters as we read a book. I've become attached to Katniss, so in order for me to continue reading the series, it is necessary that I am following Katniss's journey. For Katniss is the main element in developing how the plot will play out.
' "...All right, Katniss, big smile, you're very excited , right?' I don't exaggerate when I say she shoves me out the door' (Collins, Catching Fire, 41).
Suspense is needed because it pushes Katniss to make decisions she wouldn't usually make if she wasn't in the suspenseful situation. Suspense keeps the reader with the main character, as he/she faces it and it can change the plot for better or worse. The character has to make a choice. But it is up to the reader to guess what choice he/she is going to make and see if they were right.
'....am I wrong? Or do I see the president fixated on me as well?' (Collins, Catching Fire, 213)
I agree, these are two very important parts of Catching Fire. Very descriptive, and you got your points across. Well Done.
