This may well be Gibson's best collection yet.

While reading it, I laughed. I cried. I thought. Most of all, I felt.

Every word is a goosebump, every poem a door opening in the heart. And that's everything poetry should be.

inspiring reflective medium-paced
Started strong, lost interest a little towards the end. It’s not what I would typically go for but I was really surprised by how often I chuckled or reread the same stanza multiple times because it’s just so clever and beautiful.
