In "Catching Fire," the second book of Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games trilogy, Katniss Everdeen returns home after winning the Hunger Games alongside Peeta Mellark. However, peace is short-lived as they become symbols of rebellion in the oppressive Panem. President Snow visits Katniss, warning her to maintain the illusion of a romantic relationship with Peeta to quell unrest. As the 75th Hunger Games approaches, the stakes are raised with a special Quarter Quell, forcing previous victors to compete again. Katniss must navigate political intrigue, survival, and her growing feelings for Peeta, all while igniting a spark of revolution against the Capitol.
