Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

 For my English class I was reading a book, the name of the book was Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. This is the second book of a trilogy. I have only read this one and the first one but I like this one better because it’s just the first one ever again but with more action. This book is about a girl Katniss that in the first book was chosen to fight to the death against 25 other kids between ages of 12 to 18. Since she had gone in the first book and survived with her lover pita, which wasn’t meant to happen because only one survives. This was much like the gladiators in Rome. The leaders of this horrible game took this as defiance, which was not good. So in the second book after she returns home and lives her life but then the 75th hunger games come around but, this time the leaders tried something new in which  they would have all the 75 winners of the other hunger games compete again including Katniss and pita. Also because Katniss defied the capitol or the leaders and didn’t get punished people wanted to rebel against the leaders or the rich guys.  This is also because the country is broken down into 12 districts and each district is set into a job like mining or fishing. If you want to know more about the book read it. I highly recommend the trilogy.
