Bright Dead Things: Poems by Ada Limón
1.0
The poems were mostly duds :(
I read it over a month so it's hard to pinpoint everything, but my main gripe is with the language used. It never felt pertinent. For example, her mom was dying and she said like "the machine turned off". It felt really out of place... Also the rythm was weird. The poet always cut the verses at awkward spots...
