So far, I have quite enjoyed Catching Fire. Having not read the Hunger Games, I am just getting used to the universe of Katniss, and so far I think that the book is well written, as well as eventful and intense. So far, the book has mostly been about the victory tour which, to the people, seems just like any other, but to Katniss entails so much more. With rebellion brewing that she was undoubtedly the cause of, the Capitol has basically told her that if she does not do something to fix it, her family and friends will be in jeopardy. After a meeting in person with president Snow, she is well aware that things could start to go downhill, and they are beginning to, considering there has been an uprising in district eight. At this point, it is kind of hard to tell what is going to happen next. President Snow clearly is displeased, and Peeta seems to almost want a rebellion, considering the dire circumstances they witnessed in other districts on the victory tour, as well as the ridiculous amount of luxury that the people in the Capitol have at their disposal. Pretty soon, I think Katniss is going to have to make a decision, or things are going to go from very bad to even worse still. She has already flirted with the possibility of running away. Considering her public marriage proposals to Peeta, it seems as though she has not considered fuelling a rebellion of her own, but I believe she is still maintaining that possibility, as she knows inside of her that things are wrong with the system. Now it is time to figure out what to do about it.
