Katniss, the only girl, has to go back into the place that is her biggest nightmare. Will her family be okay with her gone? She has met people who are more advanced. Where there is more dressing up since it is her second time. But before all that, she had to live with the fact of the last Arena. Going around districts giving the same speech over and over again. Having more rules to her district. Now being trained for the second arena, with her fake husband. The pain of knowing will he be killed or not. Katniss will be struggling badly.


The main character of this book is Katniss. She is very scared in the beginning of the book. With all these new rules and more guards. She's being very careful about what she does because the things she used to do, could've sent her to jail, or the Capitol could've killed her. In the book it says "and I know theres nothing I could ever do to change this," that has to be one of the worst feelings to feel.
