What are the effects of the dystopian novels ? The effects of this is that the parents of the children reading these books don't like it because of the dark and violence nature of dystopian novel..this connects with the hunger games because in the hunger games they  to have to kill each other so they can survive and that is sending out the wrong msg to teens....dystopian novels may be a reason for so many killings these days.

What is the purpose of dystopian novels ? "While dystopian novels have received criticism for what some consider unnecessary violence, the graphic content is not needlessly gratuitous but instead reflects the violence in our own world. We need look no further than our televisions and newspapers for acts of violence similar to those portrayed in the books. Collins said that she was motivated to write the novels after watching footage of the invasion of Iraq." I think she wrote the book to show what some people in the world are sort of going through or she wrote this dystopian novel for just entertainment and to show what could happen. The hunger games is a fight to the death on live tv and the capital chooses one girl and one boy from all twelve districts, you can be chosen between the ages of twelve through eighteen, there's 24 children fighting to the death and only one child can be standing at the end of the games and if you win your prize is like food, water, supplies of all sorts and the huger games Is a dystopian novel be cause its not real life, its fiction so it could happen but unlikely.
