Rereading the book, and this piece of capitol cruelty really stuck out to me

#the hunger games #maysilee donner #sunrise on the reaping #Burning away one of the last connections to their home district is already so Dehumanising #but specifically for a girl like Maysilee who takes pride in her clothing this seems so messed up.

* updated canonical Maysilee and Haymitch interaction

We don't talk enough about the one sided beef between Lenore Dove and Maysilee

And this is with Lenore Dove being aware that Maysilee knows a pretty big secret of hers. Honestly the best subtle characterisation in the book for me

The like difference 💀

Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes isn't appreciated enough for being responsible for the hunger games renaissance

This is what Maysilee Donner meant when she said she wanted to grow old like her grandma btw

I think Maysilee Donner's going to get a bigger role in the SOTR movie

Mckenna Grace got top billing on the IMDB page for SOTR (which is a little shaky because there's still 500 days to release but still)

Every book has had a "songbird", Orignal trilogy had Katniss, Ballad had Lucy Gray , and Sunrise would have had Lenore Dove, who does sing and is also covey. However we don't see her sing on page (Haymitch says it makes her nervous and he's reaped before we ever see her sing)

We do however see Maysilee sing, infront of Haymitch in fact. Also of all the younger castings revealed till now, Mckenna Grace is the most well known and also an established singer which could prompt Lionsgate to give her a bigger role.

Which would be enabled by her being the "Songbird", and will also be a nice parallel to her being the orignal Mockingjay pin owner. They could be doing a bait and switch by mentioning Lenore Dove by revealing covey status but making Maysilee the singer (twist on Lucy Gray's role in Ballad) just to suprise book readers.

She also has the Lucy Gray recall when she says her Grandmother refrenced her saying, so that could be expanded by Lionsgate too.
