Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins (American, 2009)

Summary:
Katniss and Peeta have won the Hunger Games. District 12 now receives food from the Capitol. Things between Katniss and Gale are a little bit odd as she had to pretend to be in love with Peeta. Katniss meets President Snow, and he tells her that her plan at the games could start a revolution. He threatens her and she must convince him and everybody that she is really in love with Peeta at the tour in all districts. When they arrive to District 11, they give a moving speech to the families that lost their people, and a man makes a revolutionary sign at them. The man gets executed in front of everyone. Katniss and Peeta had to act and behave as the Capitol wanted on the other districts, but the members of the districts didn’t fall for it. Peeta proposes to Katniss. The Capitol starts to attack and repress people, Gale intervenes, and he gets punished in front of everyone. Katniss and Haymitch arrive to save him. The Capitol announces that the following Hunger Games would be carried out by two winners from each District. Haymitch and Katniss get chosen, but Peeta volunteers. Katniss makes Haymitch promise that they would save Peeta no matter what. They had to make allies, but Katniss only gets on well with the weak ones. Cinna makes a wedding dress for Katniss for the presentation, the dress transforms in a Mockingjay, which is their symbol. Snow gets mad and Cinna gets beaten in front of Katniss. They arrive to the arena and find out who their allies are, Mags (an old lady) and Finnick (a young and strong man). Mags sacrifices herself to save the others. Then, they find out that they have more allies, Joanna, Beetee and Wiress. They find out that the arena works like a clock, and they create a plan to electrocute the remaining enemies. Katniss improvises shoots the ceiling and destroys the force field. Katniss wakes up to find out that they had a plan to save her as she was important for the rebellion, that Peeta and Joanna got captured and that her district is destroyed, but Gale and her family are safe.

Another summary:
The story begins a few months after the Seventy-Fourth Annual Games have finished and the two victors, tributes from District Twelve, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark, are trying to escape the horrors of the arena and adjust to their new lives. They're also about to begin their Victory Tour, a tour around the Twelve Districts of Panem. Their love show will soon be on. After all, that is the reason why Katniss and Peeta are alive, because the star-crossed lovers would rather die than have to live without the other. At least that is what they say and what people in some of the more luxurious Districts closer to the Capitol, the heart of Panem, like 1 and 2, believe. But the truth is that not even Katniss knows for sure why she took the poisonous berries, but she too suspects that it had more to do with defiance than with love. And other Districts believe this, too; there is a genuine elation in the faces of people at the sight of the Seventy-Fourth Annual Hunger Games victors, and under the elation, fury. The Capitol is trying to fight back: to put out the fire of the uprisings. Almost half the districts have at least attempted to rebel. In Twelve alone, Peacekeepers, Panem's police and militar force, have taken over the town. But now, when Peacekeepers move in on an unruly crowd, they press back, no longer retreating. So, a curfew is set. Every crime is punished. People sign up for tesserae, where they get food in exchange of having their names appear twice or three times as much in the reaping. Under this new regime, people are starving, dying, suffering. But there is hope, there is anger. There is a rumor of a district that moved underground when everything in the surface was destroyed. Katniss' name becomes a cry for vengance by the time the Seventy-Fifth Annual Hunger Games are announced, and she has to go back to the arena along with other twenty-three victors from previous Games, including Peeta. All hope for a revolution seems lost until every single act becomes an opportunity for defiance. Victors are angry, having been promised a life of safety, they join hands, they invite the President to change the rules. He would not, of course. President Snow, too, wants Katniss, the Mockingjay, and all that she represents to become extinct; her fire put out. But there is no escaping the Games. Half the existing pool of victors dies in the bloodbath of the first day in the arena, but a few remain. Allies. A plan is made, and set on track. For the first time in the history of the Games, the Seventy-Fifth Annual Hunger Games have no victors. There was a plan to break victors out of the arena from the moment the Quarter Quell, a celebration held every twenty-five years ever since the Dark Days, was announced. The victor tributes from 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 and 11, all of Katniss' allies in the arena, had varying degrees of knowledge about the plan. Plutarch Heavensbee, this year's Head Gamemaker, has been, for several years, part of an undercover group aiming to overthrow the Capitol. They had to save Katniss because she is the Mockingjay and, while she lives, so does the revolution. 
 "Katniss Everdeen, the girl on fire, has provided a spark that left unattended could lead to a revolution."

Another summary:
Katniss Everdeen is trying to adjust to her new life as a victor of the Hunger Games alongside her for-the-cameras-only boyfriend Peeta Mellark. Part of this new life is preparing to participate in Victory Tour across all districts, a way for the Capitol to continue milking the entertainment/threat of the Hunger Games. But during this tour, Katniss experiences riots and uprisings that are directly related to her and the act of rebellion that led to there being two victors for the first time ever. This, of course, doesn't please President Snow in the least and he decides to solve it in typical Capitol fashion: a new, special edition of the Hunger Games where the participants are the past victors. This means that, once again, Katniss and Peeta are going to have to fight for their lives, but this time, two victors may not be a possibility. Katniss and Peeta, with the help of Haymitch, their mentor for the past games, strike up a series of allegiances with other past victors as a way to survive these new Games and, unbeknownst to them, help deliver the first direct blow to the Capitol.
