Goblin Market and Other Poems by Christina Rossetti

3.0

3.5/5. Even though I did give it a 3.5 rating I would say this book was fairly good. Would I recommend to anyone? No. But do I regret reading it? Also no. I felt that some of these poems were very strong and had some meanies, but I didn’t know how much religion I was getting my self into. I myself am definitely interested in other religions but in the way Christina Rossetti portrayed it I felt like it was getting slightly repetitive. Though I really loved the poems she wrote about the spring, her experiences with heartbreak, and the feeling of being forgotten. And for the actual goblin market poem (to no surprise) it was one of my favorites if not my favorite of the collection, but in the end my final decision for the rating of this book still stands at a 3.5/5.
