sophia's Reviews > The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

this book was so slow and pretty boring. i felt distanced from the plot. there wasn't much action, unlike the original Hunger Games book. the actual hunger games in this book kinda takes a backseat and is barely described.

some of it was confusing and some description was so unnecessary, so that led to me kinda skimming a little bit of it. however, the plot did start to pick up near the end, and i read the last 100 pages in one day, but the previous parts of the book took me weeks.

this is definitely worse than the original trilogy, but it was still an interesting backstory to snow. (lol i had already forgotten the role that snow has in the trilogy)

was it worth it? maybe. would i read it again? definitely not. did i enjoy it? kinda.
