This book is the perfect sequel and to ‘The Hunger Games’ and I could not put it down! Seeing the rise of the rebellion grow was so inspiring and it was written so realistically. The introduction of the past victors was cool and hearing their stories of how they won was also very cool to read. Joanna Mason will forever go down as one of my ALL TIME favorite hunger games characters and Finnick is also a plus.

The fact that this whole hunger games was part of the rebellion was amazing and how all of the tributes were in on it was so cool! I love how Katniss and Peeta didn’t know though and we find out what the plan was all along at the end.

Overall this book was amazing and I cannot wait to read the final book!

My first reaction to reading the last pages of this book was a thrilling, pure state of shock. 
“Catching Fire” is a stunning sequel to its predecessor as it twists and turns in every direction; this was actually really interesting, I thought, because it mirrors the upheaval and political unsteadinesses in the book.
I have nothing to say, really: this book is such a gripping page turner, thought-provoking and adventurous at the same time. 
I’m still team Peeta, by the way.
