32. Catching Fire, by Suzanne Collins.

Book 2 of the Hunger Games trilogy.

This time around, Katniss expects to be mentoring the Hunger Games, and is caught up in trying to figure out her feelings for Peeta and Gale, amongst a whirlwhind background of feasts, speeches, and tours of the other districts. When it is announced that the 75th Hunger Game tributes will be reaped from the pool of victors, a lot more problems become apparent.

This book shows the momentum of the growing rebellion within Panem. While Katniss is trying to do anything she can to protect the people she loves, she is scurrying around in all directions, making plans and working out how to survive - but the fire is spreading fast, and there's not really a lot that she can do to stop it.
