Listen to a bookcast by Michael about Catching Fire
Who would like this book? People who have read the first book in the series (The Hunger Games) and liked it.
Why? Catching Fire is just as good as The Hunger Games, if not better. There are more twists and turns than a road through mountains. We learn new things about Katniss and Peeta and almost feel like we are in the book. To really enjoy this book you must first read The Hunger Games. In Catching Fire, Katniss and Peeta repeatedly make the government mad at them so Katniss and Peeta agree to marry each other so they will not be killed. When the pictures of Katniss in her wedding dress appear, President Snow tells people that at the next Quarter Quell only the previous winners of the reaping will be put into the lottery. Of course Katniss, being the only female winner of the games from District 12, gets picked. Read this great book to find out more.
