The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins tells the story of Coriolanus Snow who grows up to be President Snow in the The Hunger Games trilogy. It's been many years since I read the three books or watched the movies in the original trilogy. Sequels, prequels, and accompaniment stories rarely ever captivate as much as the original. That is certainly true of this one. It does not capture the uniqueness or the intensity of The Hunger Games. Am I glad I read it? Yes. Will I likely follow along? Yes, for the story and for the trip down memory lane. Will it have the same impact as the original? No.
