the only book of poetry i have ever read in which i walked away with a different perspective of the world around me. i felt this book truly reflected what it means to be a woman in a way that i have never been able to articulate. fantastic, amazing, and devastating.

I read a lot of poetry books, and even rate a lot of them five stars. I love a lot of poetry collections. But very rarely do I find one that I truly think doesn't have a bad poem in it. This book was incredible. It all fit so well with the theme without ever feeling repetitive or on-the-nose. It was dark, and soft, and compelling, and despairing, and hopeful. I loved it so much, and I'm glad I bought it so I can go back and reread it whenever I want.
