A review by sara_berlin
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

Did not finish book.
This is the first book I’m DNFing since I joined goodreads (I’ve probably only DNFed one or two before, it’s not something I take lightly) Generally I like reading the entire book to understand it’s full potential, and I’m rarely disappointed (although arguably if a book isn’t good enough to keep you reading past the first 100 pages/30% it’s not worth finishing). I’m DNFing this at 10% because I’m not the hugest fan of the series (I agree that it was a very influential and significant piece of literature, but much like Harry Potter, I didn’t adore it because it’s just not my taste/there are better, newer versions of the same things that didn’t exist when it came out) and it just wasn’t convincing me. Not going to rate it (although if I did probably 2 or 3 stars) because it doesn’t seem fair.
