Catching Fire



The second book in The Hunger Games series hooked me from the first page. After surviving the Hunger Games, Katniss must choose between Peeta and Gale, both of whom are angry with her. But she doesn't have time to decide; soon after returning home from their Victory Tour, Katniss and Peeta discover they are to go back into the arena for the Quarter Quell, which will be the ultimate battle of the best victors. Knowing this time there will only be one survivor, Katniss makes it her mission to keep Peeta alive, knowing his goal is to do the same for her. Playing the game means facing allies and enemies, and trying to understand the Game Makers' strategy so she can ultimately beat the President at his own game once again. Catching Fire is an amazing follow up to The Hunger Games. On each page I could feel Katniss's rage at the President, and her agony over her conflicted and confused feelings for Peeta.
