A review by novel_nomad
Girl-King, by Brittany Cavallaro
4.0
4.5 Empowering Poetic Stars
I have always had a strange relationship with poetry, where it finds me after multiple readings and each time I glean a deeper message from the carefully arranged words. With Brittany Cavallaro's Girl-King, I did require a second and in some cases third reading, but the power and developing narrative across the entire collection kept me enraptured. An early step in my quest to read more poetry, and personally it was a beautifully symbolic step in the right direction.
