Now the second book started off a little slow for me. Each book is divided into three parts. The first book got my interest from the beginning, but this book took me until part two to really get into it. But once the story picked up I was hooked. I can't say book 2 is as good as book 1, but without comparing the two Catching Fire was also a wonderful read. There is a big twist in this book, which had me wanting to keep reading to figure out where the story would lead, and it ended with a major cliffhanger, so I was dying to start the third book.
