Catching Fire

In this blog post I will be blogging about a book I have been reading. The title of the book is called Catching Fire. This book is the second book in the Hunger Games Trilogy. The trilogy is about a post apocalyptic world. Where the United States is no longer there. It is called Panem. They are separated into districts and there are 13 of them. But nobody ever goes to the 13th one. Every year they have a lottery. What happens is if you are 12-18 then you're automatically in the drawing. and one boy and one girl is chosen from each district. If your name is picked then you are forced to go out in the woods and kill everyone and the last one standing wins a house, free food, and money.


The main characters in this book are Katniss, Gale, Peeta, Cinna, and the Mayor. Katniss's sister was picked to be a tribute in the games, but Katniss volunteered and took her place. Katniss's sister name is Prim only twelve years old. The boy that was chosen was Peeta. Peeta had a crush on Katniss's ever since he was five years old.

The games took place in a forest. While they were in the games some districts made alliances and teamed up on others. Katniss made a team with a little girl named Rue who was from district eleven, but Rue ended up being killed. After Rue was killed Katniss got very close to Peeta. When there were only four people left the capitol had changed the rules. They said that there could be two winners as long as they're from the same district. But whenever Katniss and Peeta were the last ones standing they changed the rules again and said that there could only be one winner. Katniss didn't want to kill Peeta and Peeta didn't want to kill Katniss so they decided to commit suicide. They were both going to eat poison berries. But right when they were about to eat them they changed the rules again and said that they both won.

In Catching Fire I'm at the part where Katniss and Peeta get to go and train the next tributes and they are going around to different parties in different districts to celebrate a new year of the games.
