Book Review: Catching Fire

by Suzanne Collins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Well, I thought the second book was just as good and just as intense as the first one. I'm still really liking the characters and their developement. I have about a million unanswered questions that are not being very patient while they wait for book three to come out in August.

I'll admit I did not see the ending coming on this one. But I liked it a lot better than the endings I predicted in my own mind. Actually, I didn't really see any of this book coming. It was a nice (nice as in because it was not predictable) surprise. I almost threw my book across the room when they announced the second games and Katniss was going to be in it. That really threw me.

I do think this book is for a little bit more of a mature audience than the first one. It's slightly more violent, but in my mind a lot more intense and on a bit of a deeper level than the first.
