91. Read and review 100 books (11/100) Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins



'Katniss Everdeen continues to struggle to protect herself and her family from the Capitol in this second novel from the bestselling Hunger Games trilogy.'


I wouldn’t say that Catching Fire is as good as the first novel but let’s face it, a lot of the time when there is a trilogy saga being set up it’s the middle book that fails to deliver what’s expected because usually its busy setting the scene for the nail biting conclusion. Anyway, I wouldn’t go so far as to say that this book failed to deliver, or fizzled, and although it wasn’t up to the standard of the first book, it was still pretty darn good! I can’t really say too much without risking giving away too many plot twists… let’s just say that once again peace and quiet doesn’t last long for Katniss and Petar upon returning to District 12 and it indeed isn’t too long until the President is once again causing trouble, placing their lives in danger and forcing them together to defend themselves… looking forward to the third book in the trilogy – The Mockingjay
