Catching Fire

Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

Lucky me, I got to read this book back in June (I had an advanced readers copy). I've kept in my rave review until now - I didn't want to spoil it for those of you who have been waiting for the follow up to The Hunger Games.
Wow! WOW! WOWIE-WOW-WOW.
I wasn't sure where the author Suzanne Collins would take our young heroes Katniss and Peeta. But once again - I was hooked, I think I read it in one sitting, and much like the Hunger Games at the end of Catching Fire I was ready for the next book in hungry anticipation.

Here's the summary from the book:
Against all odds, Katniss has won the Hunger Games. She and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark are miraculously still alive. Katniss should be relieved, happy even. After all, she has returned to her family and her longtime friend, Gale. Yet nothing is the way Katniss wishes it to be. Gale holds her at an icy distance. Peeta has turned his back on her completely. And there are whispers of a rebellion against the Capitol - a rebellion that Katniss and Peeta may have helped create.
Much to her shock, Katniss has fueled an unrest she's afraid she cannot stop. And what scares her even more is that she's not entirely convinced she should try. As time draws near for Katniss and Peeta to visit the districts on the Capitol's cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. If they can't prove , without a shadow of a doubt, that they are lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying.

This was my favourite for the summer, I just needed to wait to tell you all about it and now I finally can. Yeah! I know your gonna love it :)
