The book Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins is a fictional sequel to the book Hunger Games. Katniss and Peeta have both survived Hunger Games by pretending they would kill themselves unless they could both win. The main problems of this story occur when now 13 year old, worried Katniss comes home to find that she and Peeta could have caused another uprising in the districts because of what they did to win together. Also, Peeta now completely ignores Katniss. Lastly, President Snow, the “boss” of the Games, tells Katniss that if she doesn’t pretend to love Peeta she will suffer severely. Now, Katniss is scared.  The worse thing yet is that every 25 years the anniversary of the Hunger Games takes place by adding a special rule to that year’s Games. This year was the 3rd quell and the rule was to send back the victors from the previous games to participate again. Katniss screams and cries because now she and Peeta were back in the Games. Will they survive again through the struggles of starvation and the risk of getting killed again? I loved this book perhaps even more than the first book because it held my interest due to its suspense, unbelievable plot, and the fact that I felt the frustration Katniss felt when she found out that she must go in the Games again or the betrayal Peeta felt when he didn’t know anything about President Snow’s task for Katniss. This story had such an unexpected plot that it left me hanging for the 3rd book of this wonderful trilogy. -Nithya

In the realistic fiction book Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins Katniss Everdeen must go into the arena again to play in the 75th Annual Hunger Games and some unexpected surprises and tough times face Katniss. The main character is Katniss Everdeen, the winner of the 74th annual Hunger Games. Another main character is Peeta Mellark, a baker who loves Katniss. The main problem is Katniss and Peeta have been taken to the arena and must survive again. I loved this book because it was very intriguing and had lots of suspense. I would rate this book a 9 out of 10 and I love the setting and the plot so that's how I would rate that. -Ece
