Reading Journal:; Ambition

So for the past few weeks ive been reading the hunger games catching fire i havent been able to finish reading but it is a good book linked with ambition throughout the chapters ive read. The main character Katniss Everdeen volunteers as a tribute in the 74th killer games called “the hunger games” (made by the capitol, the leaders of all the districts) in a selection that way her younger sister primrose is spared in the first book as she wins it. the 2nd book is a different change to her life and the people she loves. Katniss is involved with many young fighters  just as the 75th hunger games start a new 3rd quarter qual which will be brutal then Ever. Her and her boyfriend “peeta mellark” continue their ambition of not killing of the “innocent” people they see that dont deserve to be killed in their hands. Seeing as Katniss is a really nice person, with the help of the other of her friends in the 75th hunger games. She as a tough fighter deterimnes to destroy the games forever. Just as her fellow team mates are killed in a shock discovery of what is behind the 75th games. Things fall into place for Katniss and Peeta and they fire their shots at the so called shield trapping them in the games territory the shield breaks completly. The games now destroyed. Katniss’ team is within captured by the capitol, including peeta. This linkes with ambition because no matter how determined katniss was to destroy the games she always did it with a purpose to spare the people she loved, and to protect them,  by putting her self first to destroy everything in their way, but without a chance to save those who were close to her in the games. katniss is then spared by her friends from her district 12, but only to know as she is safe, that her home district 12 is destroyed… Seeing as katniss was unable to save her home she was lucky enough as a tough character in the book to hope for her family to be safe the whole time and no one she loved would get hurt. Which all linkes into ambition in the book
