sareidle 's review for:
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
by Suzanne Collins
adventurous
dark
tense
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
I watched the movie version first and was happy to find out that it was quite faithful to the book. I gained a lot of insight by reading Coriolanus's thoughts and motivations. The plot became even more tragic and twisted by seeing the events through Coryo's perspective.
