After all, they have just earned for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty.

From jump this book came out swinging. I really liked the district tours and the way Katniss and Peta had to deal with all of that. The 75th hunger games were so interesting and filled with amazing characters that I just want more of. I really dig seeing how the uprisings start from just little actions and the effect they have on everyone. Throughly interesting story.

I can honestly say the this the first time when the second insert to a series of books is actually better than the first (not that the first wasn't good). Although I kind of predicted some of the plot at the beginning of the book, I was quickly taken on a crazy roller coaster ride soon after that. I really do enjoy these books.
