New Pick of the Week!

This book is the sequel to The Hunger Games, which was my first pick of the week. I don't want to give too much of Catching Fire away because it will ruin some of the suspense in the first book. The Capitol and President Snow are still very much in charge in the second book which creates a great deal of problems for the people of the districts. This year's games mark the 75th anniversary which means that the game will be a Quarter Quell. The Gamemakers from the Capitol change the game up to throw a major wrench into the traditional reaping, where the contestants are chosen. Catching Fire lets the reader in on a little more about how the different districts work and what life is like for the people of Panem. This book totally sets the reader up for another adventure and leaves you with the feeling that you haven't read the best of what this story has to offer yet.
