Catching Fire

                           


Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins is the second book in the Hunger Games series. It was published on September 9th in 2009. The first book in this series is called The Hunger Games. The third, and final book is called Mocking Jay. The book starts off talking about Katniss' (the main character) life after the games.(The Hunger Games) It then talks about everything Katniss has to deal with up until the next Hunger Games. This year would be the 75th anniversary of the hunger games. It talks about how she gets through it.

The genre that I would put this book in is the Science Fiction genre. I would put it in this genre because it has a lot of futuristic ideas that I have barely even heard of and because it has the idea of the United States collapsing and that Panem (the country in which they live) was built on the ruins of the old United States. I would say that this book would be intended for anybody above the age of seven and under the age of twenty-two.

This book affected me in a different way because it didn't really make me look at the world differently or make me re-think any of my choices, it just made me want to do archery way more than I used to. This also just made me want to write more. It didn't make me think of any other book. I just thought it was awesome.

I loved this book! I saw the movie. I have read the whole series twice. Best book I have ever read. I don't care if some people don't agree with me, but this is an amazing book. I recommend this book to every thing alive and dead. Seriously, read it to your dog or your pet parrot named Pete or the tree in your backyard or even the mice in your streets. It is a favorite of mine. It is great.
