Shanella gave to: The Hunger Games Tribute Guide by Emily Seife	My rating:
I like to think of the Tribute Guide as a cheat sheet for anyone who has not yet read the Hunger Games but is interested in the movie. While fans of the books will enjoy the movie stills and commentary, anyone who has not read the books will get a li...more

“Do you think I am an automaton? — a machine without feelings? and can bear to have my morsel of bread snatched from my lips, and my drop of living water dashed from my cup? Do you think, because I am poor, obscure, plain, and little, I am soulless and heartless? You think wrong! — I have as much soul as you — and full as much heart! And if God had gifted me with some beauty and much wealth, I should have made it as hard for you to leave me, as it is now for me to leave you. I am not talking to you now through the medium of custom, conventionalities, nor even of mortal flesh: it is my spirit that addresses your spirit; just as if both had passed through the grave, and we stood at God's feet, equal — as we are!”
― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
