The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

5.0

Many folks were upset when they found out the prequel would be about the villain Coriolanus Snow. I was a bit wary myself, but this book is FANTASTIC! It gives us a glimpse at Panem and what the Capitol was like closer toward the end of the war and how it affected the people that reside there. This is a much different Capitol than we are used to and it was interesting to read about. I thought focusing on Snow was awesome and exploring his life as a teen in the capital and beyond gives great insight into how he became the President of Panem and an evil force behind the Hunger Games Trilogy.
