The hunger games are some of the best novels ever written in my opinion. They have such a thick, intricate plot that draws all people in, even non readers! Not to mention that they are beautifully written and every word has purpose! There are no empty sentences , everything here is just filled with meaning! They teach great life lessons and every book is incredible!!! 5 stars for Catching Fire!!!!!!!

Ok, so yes, it’s pretty graphic. The whole point of the games is that the government forces children to fight to the death, so I feel like that should be expected. If you are sensitive to very specific details of murder, injuries, and mental instability, I would stay away from this book.

i didn’t like this one as much as the first purely because i don’t like the love triangle. i understand the symbolism behind it, but i think it sometimes comes at the expense of the character development. because the love triangle took up so much of the first half, it really took me out. that being said the second half definitely redeemed it for me.
