The novel “Catching Fire” builds a lot of perspectives
on how strong and independent each character is in the hunger games such as the
main character Katniss , as for in the novel “feed” M.T Anderson also promotes
a strong and revolutionized character which also happens to be a female,
violet. These are both strong woman that through the two different novels
refused to go down without a fight. Backtracking in the novel feed where violet
became a big interest in the book when she started dating the main character Titus
and was so hooked on the fact that he was hooked onto his feed, violet is
always trying to find a way to get Titus off of his feed, for example one time
they went out and she was basically trying to trick the feed asking for things
to buy that didn’t make sense just a bunch of nonsense, everything that fit her
feeds description from clothes and personal items she may enjoy she completely
went for the opposite confusing her feed and trying to prove a point to Titus.
As for in the Hunger Games “Catching Fire” where Katniss Everdeen at age 16
takes a stand to take her sisters Prims spot in the 74th hunger
games is where her journey begins. From surviving in the first game from a head
shot with a knife from her opponent clove which Katniss blocked, to making it
through the game. Now to a more revolutionized and stronger character, I would
have to pick Katniss.

. Katniss
Everdeen’s biggest competitor is a male named Peeta, and she is still forced to
overcome him if she wants to survive.
2. She
isn’t the sweetest girl but also isn’t as cruel as people portray her
3. She
hunts illegally just to feed her family to stay alive
4. She
volunteers as a tribute for her sister prim to save her life
The differences between the two characters Violet and Katniss
are indeed that for one even though violet fought the feed and tried to stick
to what she preached, it all fell through at the end of the novel when the feed
hacked her and she went insane and slowly started dying, she tried to impact
the people she cared most about to improvise to them that the feed is not needed
at all times in fact she was trying to prove you can do so much more without it
but from all she’s tried to prove took a down fall. As for Katniss a strong
rebellious woman who will do anything for her family even kill if she has to
has took a great pick over my decision on which character is more
revolutionized. Katniss shows more improvement in her efforts to get across everyone
what she wants will be what she gets. Katniss isn’t as reluctant as violet was
with specific situations in the novel, Katniss simply went with it is what it
is and keep it moving motto. She sets a prime example for all of District 12’s
children, or females which is a big political view for all of the people watching
and keeping up with all of Katniss moves especially since that this the 74th
hunger games will not be her last, “And if a girl from District Twelve of all
places can defy the capitol and walk away unharmed, what is to prevent, say, an
uprising” president snow pg.21. This quote is right when Katniss became the
face of Panem after the game makers declare her and Peeta as dual victors. Jumping
from novel to novel has shown more how such a wild card Katniss is, now what I mean
by that is Katniss is not predictable at all you can never guess what’s next
with her, but on the other side violet was more predictable because over and over
again she was going about how to stay away from the feed cast all in basically the
same way it was never unpredictable that’s why I believe violet didn’t make it
through and that Katniss did because she never did anything the same she always
kept her opponents, district 12, and her allies on their toes with every move
she made.
