Unfortunately, I never got around to reading and reviewing this book.
Maybe I will do it in the future since I'm a huge Hunger Games fan.

Meet Katniss Everdeen, a 16 year-old who lives in District 12- one of the twelve remaining districts of the nation Panem. Here, everything exists only to entertain those in the Capital…through the annual Hunger Games. 24 contestants or “Tributes” are selected lottery-style – 2 from each district. They are placed in an outdoor arena controlled by the Capital, and the crowds gather to watch as the Tributes battle to the death in order to survive. When Katniss volunteers to take her sister’s place, her life changes forever

Strategy and awareness are everything – everyone is an enemy, no tree or creature is what it seems – and only one Tribute can remain. But can Katniss decide who matters most, who the real enemy is and whether or not it is possible to fight back?

A relatable team of characters: Gale - Katniss’ life-long friend - , Peeta, who's the other Tribute from District 12 – who holds a special secret - , Haymitch – whose bark is worse than his bite –, Effie – whose efficient personality is not always appreciated - as well as many more. Some are good, some silly, some bad. Good, silly, bad, most are doomed to die or be forever in the grip of the terrible Capital and its President…unless someone can stand up and fight for the freedom of Panem and its people.

This book contains a range of pieces on the series, covering the span of all three books. It was an enjoyable insight into some of the series' characters and wider concepts. A great read for Hunger Games fans.

A well-written and enjoyable book, I am glad I requested this title and will be more than happy to pass the title along to my fellow library purchasers.

*I never got around to reading and reviewing this book. I may do so in the future*

If you loved The Hunger Games books like I did, then it's possible you still wanted more of these characters even after the story was over. THE GIRL WHO WAS ON FIRE is an excellent collection that helps transport readers back to Panem and expand on that world and the characters we all fell in love with.

I liked the idea of this book more so than the actual reality of this book. I did read several of the essays however once I hit an author's thoughts that I didn't quite gel with, I stopped reading. I could have moved past any particular story but reading it on my kindle made it less easy for me to do that.

Since receiving this book my interests have changed. Also time constraints means that I'm limited to the amount of books I can read. I won't be able to give this title the attention that it needs and deserves. Therefore I will no longer be reading or reviewing this title. Thank you.
