Review

The book, Catching Fire, takes off when Katniss Everdeen, one of the victors of the 74th Hunger Games, comes back home to District 12. She thought that winning the Games were equivalent to fame and fortune, but it's seems that it only leads to fear. Now she is forced to go on the Victory Tour in the districts to calm them from making an uprising, which she and Peeta have created...
After the Victory Tour, President Snow announced the 75th Hunger Games, The Third Quarter Quell, where the tributes will be reaped from the existing pool of victors.

Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger Games, has sold over 350 000 copies and the author who made the series is Suzanne Collins. The series are mostly for those who are young adults, but of course everyone can read it. The book is filled with adventure, action, romance and has lots of cliffhangers that makes us chock to death.

Reading Log No.5

The Mockingjay pin from the movie, The Hunger Games.
- At the sight of it I realize I never got a full explanation of the bird on the cracker and what it signifies. (Katniss thinking about the women she met in the woods, Bonnie and Twill, both from District 8).
 I never knew that a small pin could mean something big within the districts and is the code for the rebellion group. At first, Katniss wanted to take the pin with her into the Game, as her remembrance of her people in her district. But, this pin also won Rue's trust for Katniss and they made an alliance together, but when she dies, Katniss puts flowers around her to show everyone that she isn't a piece of their Games. When everyone was watching this, I think that the people gave it's meaning that the one who has the mockingjay sign, is against the Capitol, that's what I think...
