As a huge fan of Lana, I was so excited to find out she was releasing a poetry book. I’ve been a fan since 2012 and I’ve always adored her references to vintage americana and classic fiction. The book is a collection of short and long poems with beautiful images. My personal favourites are ‘Paradise is very fragile’, ‘Never to Heaven’, ‘Thanks to the locals’ and ‘Tessa DiPietro’. It’s a beautiful book to own as a fan and it’s also a book I would recommend to other fans of poetry as a big appreciator myself. It’s fairly easy to read too so definitely a good option for people looking to get into poetry. It discusses subjects such as Love, Family, Rehab, Fame, Friendships and more.
