I don't quite know how I feel about this collection of poems. When I read the two previous collections in this series I also felt kind of meh about them so I'm wondering if Amanda and I are just not connecting anymore as reader and writer. I know I'm not the only reviewer feeling this way but hopefully I can see some new and fresh content in the future from them.

I love Lovelace’s poetry. I always feel something after I read it!

Got an eArc from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This didn't connect to me as much as Shine your Icy Crown. Again, relating to my review of the first book of the series, this is more like a post from social media instead of a poem that has depth. The second book has the same element but I enjoyed and related to it which is why I let go of that reason. But in this 3rd book, I can't seem to enjoy the writing of the author. I'm giving this 1.75 stars because the author never fails to know the importance of trigger warnings and the narration of her own book is great.
