(Book 2 of The Hunger Games trilogy)Page Count: 391 pages
Summary: Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark have returned to District 12 from their victory in the 74th Annual Hunger Games. Many of their actions in the Hunger Games were seen as an act of rebellion against the Capitol by President Snow. As Peeta and Katniss go on their Victory Tour to the other 11 districts and the Capitol, they find out that there is an uprising in the works. The 75th Annual Hunger Games is set to be the 3rd Quarter Quell (which happen every 25 years). This Quarter Quell, previous victors (1 male, 1 female from each district) are to be sent back into the arena to once again participate in the Hunger Games.
Thoughts: While reading this book, I couldn't decide if I wanted to keep reading because it was such a good book, or stop reading it to prevent bad things from happening. (As if reading the bad stuff makes it happen when it's clearly already part of the story...) It is a great sequel to the first book and it managed to answer all of the questions I had once I completed The Hunger Games. However, this book ends much the same way the first one did, in that you want (no... NEED) to read the next book.
