emotional reflective

3.75

This collection contains what is currently my favourite poem and quite possible 3 of my top 5. However there are a lot of poems that despite being thought provoking, I just wasn't a huge fan of and so rating this has been quite a challenge. 

I can see how some would love all of this collection and how some would dislike the whole collection, for my it contains very high highs and disappointing lows but overall I had a wonderful time with these.

Writing was very vivid, descriptive, and easy to read and understand.  The topics covered were very varied and I especially enjoyed the few on sciences such as the cosmos/microbiology. Had a lot of fun reading! Really fast and vivid and interesting

Comfort food of poetry. I'm not one for poetry but I found this book warm, filling and satisfying. I can't rate it using the 5 star system. The scale is too limiting. You can just read so many books in a lifetime and when you get older you can have less on the to-read list so each book grows in importance and the stars dim.
