Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins


I am a little afraid to be posting this review, as it is on a book that is not only not out yet, but the envy of every other person who knows what it is and hasn't read it. Catching Fire, due to be released sometime in September, is the Sequel to Collin's equally brilliant Hunger Games. Hunger Games is a wonderful novel about a controlling government that makes it citizens compete in a gladatorial arena called the Hunger Games annually. Catching Fire picks up right where Hunger Games leaves off, so I won't divulge any plot to give you a chance to read the first book. Nevertheless, suffice to say, the book will fulfill any desperate need you have for a sequel. It answers most of the questions from the first book, AND (of course) leaves room for a third novel. A large amount of room. A cliff, you might say. In fact, expect it in about a year, because it's coming. PLEASE, quickly, author! The characters are deep, the action intense, and there are cliffhangers that will blow your mind. Literally, your mind will explode. So pick it up, and love it. NOW.

PROS:
Engaging story
Action
Characters

CONS:
Youre going to have to read hunger games first.
Too short
Cliffhangers :(
