Katniss along with Peeta have won the 74th Hunger Games. They are now living their "privileged" lives back in District 12. Unfortunately, due to the events that took place during their Games, Peeta and Katniss have sparked rebellion throughout the other districts. They are thus, forced by President Snow, to fight for their friends and families lives during a victory tour. Peeta and Katniss must convince those in the other districts that their love is real and that their actions during the games were not in defiance of the Captiol and it's powers. There is SOOOOOO much more that happens as a result of their tour but really I don't want to even mention the repercussions because it will spoil it.
I really, really, really liked this book. I gave it only 4.5 stars because although it was superb and a fast read, it just wasn't as good as the first. It's hard to hit a second pitch out of the park when the first was so phenomenal. It was a great follow up, however, and I can't wait for the third - Mockingjay. I don't know if it will be the final in the series...I guess I'll see when I read it.
