Column Effect

When you’re charged more for home repairs or anything when someone sees that you have columns on your house.

An effect often seen in books of the dystopian genre where the author inserts a slew of unfortunate, jarring events that leave the reader astonished and speechless, especially if a beloved character dies suddenly with little time to grieve.

In the book Mockingjay, from The Hunger Games Trilogy, the death of the character Finnick Odair shows A Hunger Games Effect in full force, where he dies so suddenly, it’s almost comical.
