Summary:
Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark. But it was a victory won by defiance of the Capitol and their harsh rules. Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have just won for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty. But there are rumors of rebellion among the subjects, and Katniss and Peeta, to their horror, are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge.

My Thoughts:
This was such a great book! I loved The Hunger Games but in my honest opinion this was even better. It was much more adventuresome and wild. The story was fully developed and the characters so real. The story was one to just sit down and read.

I recommend this book to fans of the first. Everyone should try the first book though.
