I'm not a horror fan, and I haven't seen almost any of the movies these poems are about, but I still really enjoyed this book. It's split into four sections, and I found I liked the last two sections far more than the first two.
I love feminist poetry, poetry about female rage, and overly indulgent destructive poetry. This book is all three wrapped up in the grief and frustration of both horror movies and what it felt like to be a woman in the US in 2016-2017.
