QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Tell us about the most emotional scene you've ever read in a book - and how did you react?
It’s a very tricky question for me. The books I read
don’t tend to have much emotional scenes. But I was surprised with The Hunger
Games. Despite the action, this series was really emotional too. Frankly, it
was the first time that I was affected so much by a book. It wasn’t only one
scene, but all the parts that Katniss was talking about her family, how hard it
was to survive, all the things she did to protect her sister. It was the first
time I cried while reading a book. Yes, I can admit that. Suzanne Collins
managed to make the reader connect with Katniss so much that I can’t believe
there is anyone who didn’t feel his heart tightening, while he was reading that
stuff.
How about you? What scene really touched your heart?
Well I get a mix of emotions when I read a book. They don't necessarily make me cry, but they do pull forward an emotion of some kind!

I haven't read Hunger Games so far, not sure if I want to! But I saw a lot of my friends get emotional about Hunger Games :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by earlier! I used to read every Nicholas Sparks book, but after about 10 books or so, I stopped because I dislike the tear-jerker moments that are sure to come up in his books!

Hunger Games was an emotional read for me too. I remember being so angry with what happened to Rue!! Arrgh, why!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my FF. Following you back :)
It was hard not to get emotional while reading the trilogy. My daughter and I had to support each other through it all. Rue's death was so heartbreaking, and everything Katniss did in her memory just endeared Katniss to me even more. She showed heart and human compassion. The author did a superb job writing these books.

ReplyDeleteOh yes, The Hunger Games was quite an emotional ride! I still remember feeling very sad, depressed and distorted while reading it, but I guess that's how dystopians leave you feeling anyway. Awesome answer!
