Thanks, Elizabeth! Butterflies are one of my favorite nature / animal symbols as well. 🙂

Definitely check out Poison Study when you have a chance. You might like it – it’s fantasy, though it’s light on the magic / supernatural side, but it’s an amazing story and very hard to put down.

The Hunger Games’ mockingjay was perfect for the series and carried a meaning we could all relate to in a way. I also like the idea behind the butterflies in Poison Study, even though I’ve never read the series. Butterflies are one of my favorite symbols of nature.
Great article, once again, Sara!
I do have several symbols in my series V.Chronicles, so this will be very helpful.
