Catching Fire

The plot thickens. In the second book of The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, the reader finds Katniss in a deluge of adventure and reality once again.

I've been having a hard time writing this review, actually. It has been under "draft" for the past several days because I am not sure what to say about it. Well, I could say plenty of things. But really I don't know what to say without giving you all the secrets. I guess I will assume that you have not read The Hunger Games so that I don't ruin it for you.

Catching Fire is much deeper and meatier than The Hunger Games. It has more action, more description, and more excitement. Suzanne Collins' did a wonderful job of pulling the reader through the twists and turns of the story. I, sadly, did not even predict the main plot twist. I think I may have gasped aloud when I read that chapter, most likely confusing the people around me at the time.

You may be surprised after my review of the first book, but I think The Hunger Games was worth reading just to get to this one.

There is a third and final chapter to this series called Mockingjay. I'm hoping that my library gets it in soon so I can see how this story ends.
