there’s blood on the side of the mountain…it’s turning a new shade of red.
suzanne, please accept my apology for doubting your prowess. but to be fair, you did write mockingjay. but, let’s let bygones be bygones. because the ballad of songbirds and snakes is infinitely richer and more interesting than nearly anything in the original trilogy’s story.
this time we follow coriolanus snow, future president of panel as he walks the tightrope of who he will become and who he wants to be. it’s fascinating to read from such a contradictory complex perspective.
