A text-to-text connection

(You may want to stop reading my blog if you haven't read Allegiant and are still planning to, just saying I'm bad at not giving things away.)


I noticed a text-to-text connection while reading Allegiant. The connection I thought of was a connection to The Hunger Games. I connected the game makers in The Hunger Games to the people who had been running the experiment outside the city in Divergent. I believe I made this connection because the game makers run the hunger games from outside the arena and can see everything that the tributes do. This is related to the agency running the experiment in Chicago because they just sit and watch the entire experiment go down. They can see everybody's each and every move but they never  do anything to stop the violence just like the game makers. There are also other connections between these books, such as how they are both Dystopian American societies with teenage girls as the protagonists. They are also both great and fun to read books that everyone should check out.
