The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

3.0

Thanks to Arjen for reading this book together with me! This book has been on my shelves for ages. I received it in a Bookbox and have been very curious about this book. The Hunger Games series has a very special place in my heart. Book one was the first book I've read in English and I remember binge reading the books in 3 days, during my internship in Chicago. Sadly, this #0 fell a bit flat for me, even though the story was entertaining.

I'm really curious how they are going to make a movie from this book! Hopefully I will believe that Coriolanus is evil by then, lol. What I did like a lot is that we learn the origin of the song The Hanging Tree, which was beautiful incorporated in the movies. Books 1-3 are still my favorite and I'm sure I'll re-read them one day, but probably not this one.
