Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins - A Review

Catching Fire continues Katniss Everdeen’s story after her unexpected victory in the Hunger Games. Life in Victor’s Village should feel safe, but instead it comes with new dangers. Katniss and Peeta’s defiance has stirred unrest in Panem, and the Capitol—especially President Snow—is watching them closely.

Because the story is told from Katniss’s point of view, readers experience her uncertainty and fear right along with her. She’s not always easy to like, but she feels real, and that honesty makes it easy to care about what happens to her and the people she’s trying to protect. The book includes some romantic tension, but it never overshadows the bigger picture of power, control, and rebellion.

The pacing is slower at first, but that setup leads to major twists and a powerful ending that reframes everything that came before. Catching Fire raises the stakes in every way and proves to be a sequel that’s just as intense as the first book.
