Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins (2009)

The second book of the Hunger Games was again wonderful. Since Katniss and Peeta won the last hunger games, they now have to travel around to all the districts and be shown off. By saving Peeta and defying the games' rules, Katniss has become a symbol for rebellion throughout the districts. She now has to continue the pretense she started in the first book of being madly in love with Peeta. He IS in love with her, but she loves Gale. Anyway, Collins keeps spinning this complex alternative future world, that never ceases to amaze me.
