Look for The Girl Who Was on Fire - Booster Pack to get just the three new essays and the extra movie content.** Katniss Everdeen's adventures may have come to an end, but her story continues to blaze in the hearts of millions worldwide. In The Girl Who Was on Fire - Movie Edition, sixteen YA authors take you back to the world of the Hunger Games with moving, dark, and funny pieces on Katniss, the Games, Gale and Peeta, reality TV, survival, and more. From the trilogy's darker themes of violence and social control to fashion and weaponry, the collection's exploration of the Hunger Games reveals exactly how rich, and how perilous, Panem, and the series, really is. . How does the way the Games affect the brain explain Haymitch's drinking, Annie's distraction, and Wiress' speech problems? . What does the rebellion have in common with the War on Terror? . Why isn't the answer to ""Peeta or Gale?"" as interesting as the question itself? . What should Panem have learned from the fates of other hedonistic societies throughout history-and what can we?
