Timothy’s Reviews > The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes > Status Update

We switched to the audiobook while on our trip out of state this week… back to print now that we’re home. All of that time in the car made for plenty of progress — even spending only a small fraction of that time on this.

The book is better than I was expecting from the reviews, but definitely very different from the others in the series.

The pacing of this book is far slower than I’d anticipated. It’s good, for sure, but progress has been rather slow thus far.

This one definitely has a much different feel than the other books in the series — both the original trilogy and the newer prequel. Hopefully my daughter can continue to follow the story despite the more complicated narrative.
