Catching Fire

This is one of those books where you wonder, “at the beginning of the book,” - why is there a second part to the story? But as you read along, it feels more than the author wanting to write a second book because the first one was popular - unlike Ready Player Two. As the story unfolded, it brought me back to the world of the 12 districts, the capital, and the story of the Hunger Games. As the book ended, I was speechless because so much happened in the last few chapters. So much! I was dumbfounded, and I just wanted to start the third book. The reason I gave this book 4 stars is because of the feeling and the slow pace in the beginning. But as the pace picked up, there was confusion, excitement, laughter, anxiety, and so many more emotions that I felt.

Given that I didn't know if I liked the ending of the first book, I think this book was necessary to make me know more about the story.
