Summary
Add a SummaryKatniss Everdeen had survived the Hunger Games along with her "boyfriend" Peeta Mellark! She hopes that once she returns home, her life can get back to normal. But things will never be the same for Katniss ever again. Prim is more adult than tween, Gale holds her at an icy distance, and Peeta pretty much ignores her. While living in her new home in the Victor's Village, Katniss learns about the "change" in this year's Hunger Games. Instead of having a new boy and girl tribute from each district compete in the Games, a boy and girl victor from each district will be submitted into one big battle to see which victor survives. Katniss enters the Hunger Games devoted to protecting Peeta's life rather than hers, because this time, there will be only one victor. Katniss may have survived the last Hunger Games, but this time, the odds are most definitely not in her favor.
Katniss and Peeta have come out of the hunger games alive. katniss must convince all of Panem that she loves Peeta when she goes on the victory tour. But president Snow annouces the third Quarter Quell a fight to the death between a female and male victor of the hunger games of each district and Katniss know shes going back into the arena, and this time she must save Peeta.
Katniss and Peeta must once again try to survive in a newly connived arena in the next year's Hunger Games. Love, betrayal, and hurt...amazing book!!
the journey continues as katniss everdeen and peeta continue the survival to fight in the arena....
Katniss Everdeen is returning home after winning the 74th annual Hunger Games with her "boyfriend" Peeta Mellark. They visit the other districts on a victory tour, and each make speeches about the fallen tributes. When they finally arrive home, Katniss meets two girls from district 8 planning on going to a bombed district, district 13, where it is said survivors live underground. On the 75th annual Hunger Games on the Quarter Quell, tributes who have the Hunger Games in the past are chosen to participate, instead of all new tributes. Katniss is chosen by default and Peeta volunteers for Haymitch when he is chosen. In the beach-like arena, Katniss discovers it is set like a clock. When the Hunger Games is finally over, she discovers that her home, district 12, has been bombed and destroyed.
The book "Catching Fire" is about katniss and peeta and how their life changes after they get back from the Hunger Games as the new victors .
Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark believe they are finally safe from the Hunger Games, after winning. Until, the president warns Katniss, that her act of desperation to save Peeta's life during the previous games, has led to uprisings in many of the districts and that she must quiet these rebellions during her victory tour. Inadvertently, she and Peeta are achieving just the opposite when they find out that, for the 75th Hunger Games (The 3rd Quarter Quell), they will need to return, along with a man and woman victor from the other districts. They, once again need to fight to stay alive in a new arena with all new enemies.
The book that I have finished is called "Catching Fire" by Suzanne Collins a science fiction/fantasy book. The main idea of this book is that in the begging Katniss had met the president Mr.Snow had a talk or meeting. Katniss and Peeta had been resubmitted into the hunger games for the second time. During the hunger game Peeta got hurt and Katniss is trying to rescue Peeta from dying from the poisonous gas and the injury that Peeta had. At the end someone had died from district 12... (*I am not trying to mess up the ending!).
Katniss Everdeen goes back into the arena with peeta and fight for survival.
in the incredible secong book of the "Hunger Games" Catching Fire by suzanne collins, Katniss Everdeen has to battle in the 75th hunger games. But every 25 years there is what they call a quarter quell. A quarter quell is when there is a twist to the games made by the gamemakers. in the 75 hunger games (the 3rd quarter quell) all the winners of past hunger games (1 boy and 1 girl) that are still alive, must be thrown into the arena once again to fihgt to the death... who will win? What will happen? I'll tell you this: THis hunger games is like no other ever before... Read to find out why!

my the 75th hunger game begin
"May the odds be ever in your favor."
"On the 75th anniversary, as a reminder to the rebels that even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the Capitol, the male and female tributes will be reaped from their existing pool of victors."
"It means we're on ur side"
"Tick tock" said Wiress "Yes tick tock the areas a clock" says Katniss
"Let the 75th Hunger Games begin!"
“Really, the combination of the scabs and the ointment looks hideous. I can't help enjoying his distress. "Poor Finnick. Is this the first time in your life you haven't looked pretty?" I say. "It must be. The sensation's completely new. How have you managed it all these years?" he asks. "Just avoid mirrors. You'll forget about it," I say. "Not if I keep looking at you," he says.”
" So girl on fire, what secrets do you have for me?" -Finnick
This is the first that makes me want another.

great read - can't wait to read Mockingjay!
I read all the books and they were awesome!!!!!! I cannot wait for catching fire the movie to come out!!!!! :)
It's really sad that some reviewers have given away major plot points of the 2nd & 3rd books. Most people reading the reviews haven't read the book yet and won't get enjoy the suspense like the author intended. **Be careful reading some of the reviews, lots of spoilers** Oh well, I'm really enjoying this series so far, the story line is great and the writing is well done. Now I'm off to read the third instalment, thank goodness I checked the last two out at the same time, I don't think I could have waited!
WOW. Thanks for spoiling the book guys. Really, thanks. -.-
OMG! OMG! OMG!!!!!!!!!! I LOVED THIS BOOOOOK!!!!!!! WAAAAY better then the first one though. I would rate this...hmmm....let's seeee...... 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000AWESOMATACTIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I agree with fluffyunicorns- they killed FINNICK! AND PRIMROSE!!! OMIGOSH! I FELT LIKE CRYING AT THAT PAAAART!!!!!!!!!!! :( I agree with BTVS too. And erinelaine. AAAAND m0nkey
I love this series and this was a great book. My only complaint is that it moves at turbo speed at all times. I found myself speaking out loud while reading, begging the author to slow down and give me more information! It's a fast read and I couldn't put it down, but it suffers from being a middle book...everything has to be set up for the third installment, and as Collins' books aren't very long, it has to be done quickly. I think anyone who has been spoiled by the 500-plus-page-adventures of Harry Potter and Bella Swan is going to be frustrated by the brevity and speed of this novel.
Gale said there is no district 12 because the capitol bombed it.
