I started reading this book a few years back, and never finished it for whatever reason.
This is not so much a book of poetry. It is more accurately, a book of prose. Full of words and sentence fragments.
This book has a powerful and wildly feminist voice. The stories told throughout are about love, sexuality and things the author dislikes. There are also many poems that read like rants.
I enjoyed this book a lot. It was edgy and thought provoking

very direct language, not my taste in poetry though the messages are undoubtedly timely and revelant as a woman in a patriarchal world.

I have many thoughts on this book, but none of them are very positive. I was wildly underwhelmed.

This collection of poetry is one of the most honest and relatable piece of literature I have read in a long time. Robinson writes about relationships, ambitions, being free, and the struggles of being a woman in todays society. Her brutal honesty is refreshing and appreciated. Every woman should take a look at this collection. And I am willing to bet every woman will be able to take something away from at least one of these poems. I personally marked my favorites, the ones I relate to most, so that I can go back to them and reflect when needed. Definitely worth the read!
