I started off liking the poetry in this book, but I found as I kept reading that I just didn't really connect to it. 
This book just wasn't for me.

While there were several poems within this collection I felt a genuine interest in and personal connection with, overall, I found that most of the pieces held a very vague, generalistic style that doesn’t suit my personal preference. I was also very surprised at some of the content! I had never heard of any trigger warnings for this book, despite how heavily hyped it’s been, and I was in for quite a shock while reading it at work for the first time.

Keep in mind, there is artwork in this book. Some of this artwork depicts or strongly implies some of the content. View with discretion.

I went into this book blind, and I was not expecting that. Towards the beginning it was just kind of okay but a bit towards the end there were a couple of good quotes.
