The title The Most Dangerous Game plays on the word game. Write three to five sentences explaining the meanings of the word game
cricket20 [7]
A game is usually a competitive activity between two competing sides. It's a dangerous game because it's involving the attempt of a murder of Rainsford by Zaroff via hunting. It's also dangerous because of the environment in which they dwell and the other forces working towards his downfall such as Ivan and the dogs. While games are usually fun and enjoyable, the title of The Most Dangerous Game is ironic in that it's a life or death situation and a battle of wits, and it involves being chased or found like in tag or hide and seek.

Who is you're least favorite character in the outsiders novel and why ?
Nonamiya [84]
My least favorite character was Dally because he purposely got himself killed because he couldn’t take the pain of loosing Johnny. I thought it was selfish for him to give up his life like that and not want to continue on and learn how to grieve and get better.


( It’s been two years since I read this book, wasn’t it Dallas that got himself shot purposely? I’m pretty sure. I hated this book with a passion by the way. Hope this helps:)
