I felt the lottery was a weird story. I didn’t really get the reason why they had to kill someone. I get that it was a tradition, but I don’t understand why it was a tradition. They were all greeting each other normally too, but they didn’t show any emotion when everyone was throwing rocks at Mrs. Hutchinson. Even her children joined in, which I didn’t get because I would think they would feel sad that their mom was gonna die, but everyone was just happy it wasn’t them that died. In modern times, there would be a lot of riots if someone was killed, but in the story, everyone would just move on to their normal life and not care. The ending was kind of random, and hard to understand. I felt the story was okay.
