4.5

This second instalment of the Hunger Games trilogy continues the series explosive and visceral storytelling with a new harrowing chapter. Katniss and Peeta have survived the horrors of the Hunger Games, but now they have unwittingly ignited the spark of revolution. This volume continues the series' commentary on the decadent Capital and its excesses, in contrast to the desperation and unrest of the Districts. Similarly, the depth of critique of state surveillance is great, surprising readers in 2009 but less novel to contemporary readers, revealing much about our current society. The twists and turns of this book build toward its terrifying conclusion and a new paradigm that might change the course of a nation. Amazing book that I could not put down!
