Catching Fire - Finished

I just finished reading the second installment of Suzanne Collins's Hunger Games. I actually really enjoyed it, especially the story line, it has remained consistant all the way through. I won't give away major details but a whole other side regarding the Capital and the districts has been opened up and there's a MAJOR twist that I wasn't expecting at all! For those who have read it I'm sure you know what I mean. Overall I found the book really thrilling, the characters remained as mysterious as ever and I am thoroughly astounded by how complex Suzanne Collins has designed some characters in this book. The love triangle between Katnis, Peeta and Gale intensifies, and of course the choice of who she wants to be with: Peeta or Gale, Ah, the troubles of a teenager!

On to the third installment now: Mocking Jay
Really looking foward to it!

Embarking On Catching Fire

I know, I know, this is the second post I've done about the whole Hunger Games, but I'm about 180 pages into Catching Fire! So far there's no flaw as far as I can tell, I've got nothing but positives to say! I won't reveal anything incase some of you are yet to read it. It's so easy to get into the book, the relationship between Katniss and Peeta intensifies! Catching Fire is basically the lead up to the imminent 'Rebellion' that we've all been waiting for! I'm at the part where Gale's wounds are being tended to and Katniss, Peeta and Haymitch have just seen the revamping of district 12: new peackeepers and the black market being burned down, i'm just anticipating the clever plans that will be concocted in order to protect Katniss's loved ones. I will have to say I applaude Suzanne Collins, she incorporates some clever: imagery, and descriptive language effectively, i guess that's why its so easy to conjure it all up in your head with minimal ease.
I probably should get back to reading the book!
