These are Books II and III of the Hunger Games trilogy. Katniss, Peeta, and Gale are back again and the unrest in the districts is growing.
I was a tad disappointed with these books. I found both of them to be slower and much harder to get into than The Hunger Games. After about 60 pages or so, I got more into the stories, but neither book took over my life like The Hunger Games did...although I did stay up a bit later to finish Mockingjay.
A part of me wishes that I had stopped at The Hunger Games. The series seemed to lose some steam as it chugged toward closure. I would still recommend the series, but would suggest having lower expectations for the second and third book.
