the lottery

                                             What up with the lottery?                               Austin Shibilski

When you win the lottery you think of winning money. But in the book “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson that is way different instead of getting money you get stoned to death. In many towns they stopped but in this town they didn’t and some people died this way. In the book they always had a tradition, they had to go to town hall and pull a ticket and who ever had a black dot was killed. What book does this remind you of this book remind me of hunger games because they have a tradition and people die in booth stories?

 I think one of the  themes is nerves because they don’t want to be picked. Because if you’re picked you get stoned to death and people are killing their friends and that makes it sad. I think that if you picked the black dot you would run off because you didn’t want to be picked. I think it’s scary to be picked. That s a few themes about the book
