break your glass slippers by Amanda Lovelace
5.0
Amanda Lovelace is back at it and blowing us all away again, this time with her new collection of poems Break Your Glass Slippers. Given away in the title, one can assume that this new collection of poetry is twisted and themed around the fairy tale Cinderella. Focusing on empowering women and enchanting us all with her words yet again, Lovelace succeeds in reminding us all that we are Cinderella, and that are Fairy Godmother might be closer than you realize.
Every time I pick up new work by Lovelace I keep thinking she's told me all I need to hear, that she can't possibly amaze me anymore than she already has... and every single time I am wrong. That being said, I would highly encourage everyone to take the trigger warnings at the front of this collection (and all of her others) very seriously. Lovelace always manages to bring me to tears and back again - always feeling stronger and more empowered than I was before.
**I received an ARC of this collection in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity**
