The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

3.9 AVERAGE

abbybergkamp's review against another edition

3.0
The last few chapters of this book were the best part for me. The world building felt lacking compared to the original trilogy, and Lucy Gray in particular felt thin. She was supposed to be this miraculous girl, but her character writing felt awkward and forced. I also just can't understand the supposed love between Coriolanius and Lucy Gray. All in all, fun to read for the little refernces to the original trilogy and the last 50 pages helped clear things up, but still not my favorite.
