Title: It's no Hunger Games!
Review: Lord of the Flies is alright I guess. I mean, I know it's a classic, but the plot is distinctly lacking in so many ways, you feel like it should be updated for today's readers. For instance, there are no touchscreen interfaces OF ANY KIND in this book. Nobody has a camelback or even an earth-friendly stainless steel water bottle. And unless I'm forgetting something, there's no suggestion whatsoever that aliens or supernatural intruders are secretly present on the island. I don't know, I guess there's just a lot of missed opportunity in this book. Maybe whoever wrote it should think about some revisions? Because as it is, there's really not much to it except a searing journey into mostly unanswerable questions about what it is to be human.
