"Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn't carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life."~Stephen King

This basically sums up the point of this blog. Book reviews. Everyone should carry a book, so why not a good one?

Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

SPOILER ALERT:  DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE HUNGER GAMES.

The second book in Collins' Hunger Games series, Catching Fire is by far my favorite, if only because I'm a huge Peeta fan and he features prominently in this book.  Nevertheless, it's fantabulous and everyone should read it(in my humble opinion(: ).
In this book, Peeta and Katniss are back in District 12 following their historic victory in the seventy-fourth Hunger Games.  Haymitch is drunk as ever, and Katniss is stir-crazy on the victory tour, but one thing's for sure, following her fallout with Peeta in book 1, Katniss has to portray the lovesick teen with poise and grace if she wants to survive.  What will happen as the 3rd Quarter Quell approaches?  Only the Capitol knows...Go pick it up and find out!

Teaser Quote:  "Then he turns and my heart skips a beat. I’m staring into the snakelike eyes of President Snow."~Katniss Everdeen
