A review by madanxiety
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

Wow. Suzanne Collins has still got it. This series really makes for a fascinating study of political allegory, propaganda and unreliable narration. This particular novel maps the stunning transformation of a privileged boy into a self-righteous villain. Poor Lucy Gray.
