I started Hunger Games last night which means I was up later than intended and I'm now sipping my third cup of coffee. Mid-morning conversation included a partial (no spoilers) review from my (new) neice, revelation that my sister had also purchased the book for holiday reading, and a comparision of this novel to The Lottery by Shirley Jackson. (Sis always had the better memory.) The Lottery was originally published in The New Yorker in 1948. For those of you who have also read HG, I am eager to hear your thoughts on story parallels (after of course, I finish the book).
Good luck boxing, bagging, and discovering old articles to re-read.
Happy Boxing Day.
