absolutely phenomenal book; i finished it days ago, and cannot stop thinking about it! the music, the mystery, the craziness it was all so fast paced and really made you understand how terrible and messed up both coriolanus and the capitol are. 

knowing everything about lucy gray baird is so so wild! the way she wrote the hanging tree and (possibly) deep in the meadow. even the way that her ballad is a foreshadow of what happens to her at the end. there’s no way katniss’ father was not a covey. (most likely the son of maude ivory)
