Catching Fire by Suzanne CollinsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is the second of the Hunger Games series, the first of which I read earlier in the summer finally. I'm not sure I have much to add to my previous review because this second book in the series continues the story seamlessly from the original Hunger Games. The writing remains brilliant and the characters vivid. New, of course, is you can just see the PTSD in the main characters, which is leaking out in all sorts of messy ways. Understandable, of course. And it gives layers to the main characters which make sense.

Catching Fire may be my favorite of Collins' books. I found the movie adaptation well-done, too. I loved how the intended victims found a way to turn the tool of oppression around on their oppressors. How decency and standing together were acts of rebellion.
