Helpful Score: 1
Suzanne Collins does not disappoint in this book. She makes you "hungry" for more. With some unexpected and not so unexpected twists and turns in this book I just couldn't put it down. Then to be left with such a cliffhanger. I can hardly wait to read the third book in this series.
After the first book Hunger Games when Katniss and Peeta won the hunger games by beating the Capital at it's own sick games. They each live in brand new houses with never having to fear a lack of food or anything for that matter. However Katniss can't seem to shake the feeling that she, her friends and family will be punished by what the President sees as rebellion by choosing to try and commit suicide in the arena when she and Peeta are the remaining players as neither one can kill the other. She is haunted by her nightmares and every knock at her door makes her jump as she thinks it could be someone coming to take her into custody.
The love triangle of Katniss, Peeta and Gale is questionable. You would think by the way the first book ended that she would have chosen Gale. In this book it seems that she is still somewhat torn between the two. I hope there is a more definite answer of whom she chooses in the third.
Months later there is what they call the Quarter Quells, in which they have another drawing of names only this time it is of the Victors. Where a new arena awaits, and is more deadly than the last as it seems the capitol doesn't want any survivors, perhaps to crush the spirits of every person in each district to gain control of the rebelling that has been happening. The book certainly leaves you hanging for the final book. Overall, great read.
