Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins



This is the second book in the Hunger Games series.

So far so good, however I am not yet liking it as much as the first. We'll see if I still feel that way when I'm finished...

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins



I read this book while in Hawaii and loved it! It's one of those that you can't put down. It's a novel that takes place in the future which is in sort of a post apocalypse circumstance. The world is now divided into districts that are controlled by one division called the Capitol.

The Capitol forces the districts to each send one boy and one girl to participate in The Hunger Games, which is basically a fight to the death with only one winner. All other 23 participates are killed during the games.

The storyline focuses on one particular girl, Katniss, and her struggles living in the most poverty stricken district and participating in The Hunger Games.

I'm usually not into the sci-fi type books but I really loved this one. I can't wait to read the second book in the series, Catching Fire.
