I rarely give poetry books a rating as they feel so personal, but this book was a beautiful experience. I fully recommend it.

An autobiographical collection that managed to keep my interest to the end which is rare.

beautiful

A beautiful book of every pain and wonder anyone might go through, but particularly poignant because there aren’t ever enough queer voices spoken or heard.

One of those rare writers who can make me cry. Gibson is sincere in their softheartedness and still manages to avoid the saccharine. Highly recommend!

Gonna think on these for a while. I liked how the stanza length would play into the rhythm of the poems.
