I’ve finally read the second book of the series, Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins which is Catching Fire. It is also a good one but not as good as the first book anyway but, still, it’s a good one. I really like how in this book and in the first one of the series, it would be quite hard to guess what’s going to happen next so Suzanne’s books keep most readers hanging on for more. It really is hard to stop reading because of how every chapter gets cut short which also indicates that more of the details would follow in next chapters so you probably won’t understand a chapter without reading the next ones to come. That might be the reason why each book is divided into parts which help because I think it would be like watching a movie while having LBM so you would have to take long, long breaks from watching then it would be hard to understand the movie.
So here’s the long story made short. (Let me AGAIN warn you of spoilers up ahead)
When Katniss and Peeta won the Hunger Games as a pair (which shouldn’t be) this was seen as the spark that spreads the flames of rebellion of the 12 districts against the Capitol so the President of Panem, President Snow, wants Katniss to put off the flame that would sooner or later grow out of her control but Katniss realizes it is too late because after their victory tour (which was the last hope of putting out the flames of rebellion) one of the districts, particularly District 8, had an uprising and showed defiance toward the Capitol.
The next Hunger Games was one which was very surprising because the tributes were to be picked from the existing victors of each district so Katniss would have to be part of the Hunger Games again. In the Hunger Games, Katniss decides that she would do everything to make Peeta be the victor but her efforts of keeping Peeta alive were not continued because she was actually part of a bigger plan, which was to be the leader of the rebels in the war against the Capitol so before the Games even ended, Katniss was taken by a rebel hovercraft wherein her wounds from the Games were treated and where she also saw the whole picture of the rebellion that lead to the destruction of her home, District 12.
The main reason why I think that the last book was better because this one was more of a sad book because Katniss was seen to be having a hard time to clean up a mess she think she started but was actually the act that started and helped in the war against the Capitol by fueling the rage of the people against the Capitol without her even knowing but still I liked it because of the fact that Katniss doesn’t seem to pretend to love Peeta but instead falls for him, I think (:D), because she shows that she really cares for him and she knows that he cares for her too. <3
(I think I won’t be including a poem just yet because I think that the poem I did for my previous blog,The Hunger Games, would be what I would say for this book too.)
Coming soon, my blog on MOCKINGJAY, the last book of the series. :D
