Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins


Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins is the second book in The Hunger Games Trilogy. Here is the back of the book:

"Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark. But it was a victory won by defiance of the Capitol and their harsh rules. Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have just won for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty. But there are rumors of rebellion among the subjects, and Katniss and Peeta, to their horror, are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge."

I found this book to be just as addicting as the first book. It was well written with amazing visuals and written in a way that you can really see the world through Katniss's eyes. You can really understand her feelings and suspicions towards every other character in the book, and really sympathize with her. This book really connects you to the main character.

For anyone who has seen the movie, it actually is very close to what actually happens in the book, though there are still a few scenes that the movie did leave out and the book does give a lot more insight on the characters and what is going on.

Personally, I definitely think it's a must read, even if you've already seen the movie.
