Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have secured, for themselves and their families, a life of safety and plenty. They will live in fancy houses in Victory Village, their families will never be hungry again, and the cruel games are behind them. But there are rumours of rebellion among the other districts, and to Katniss's horror, Katniss and Peeta are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge. The Capitol will not be fooled again

Ratings and reviews

Enjoyed reading it, but was a little too slow to start. First third of book was basically landfill, but pace picked up after that. The plot thickens in the last few chapters, ensuring that you'll be running to read the third book.

This is a joy to read. Suzanne Collins continues the saga with more twists and turns than the last one. This is combined with the satire that was also prevalent in the last book. Highly Recommended.

The Hunger Games Series is a great fictional Dystopian series. I liked Catching Fire out of the three books. Loved the movie too! :) May the Odds Be Ever in Your Favor.
