sigo enamorada d esta autora, las palabras que escriben me llegan al alma.
quizas no conecté tanto con este q con milk and honey porque habla de temas en los q yo no me identifico pero aún así amé

Sé que no debo medir a este libro como si se tratara de Castellanos o de Lope de Vega; pero creo que estos poemas -que algunos parecían más como relatos- son demasiado comunes. El verso libre me parece un recurso muy de flojera como para no invertir más en la producción de un poema.
No sé, pero creo que han sobrevalorado mucho a esta autora
(Casi le pongo 1 estrella, pero le añadí dos por el mensaje que lanza en cuanto a la independencia y al empoderamiento de la mujer)

consider me surprised

i enjoyed this book
despite not liking the first
opinions change and people grow
both as readers and as writers
never judge an author
by their first book
judge them by their second
This pretty much addressed all of my criticisms of the first book. It wasn't just about sex (though there was definitely a lot of that); it was about family and love and what it means to be an immigrant. It actually made me cry on several occasions, and while I marked only 3 poems in the first book, I marked 25 in this. It was worlds away from the messy nonsense of Milk and Honey. It felt more real and genuine. It felt less like a 13-year-old's tumblr poetry and more like an adult. The narrative poems were some of my favorites and the shorter ones had messages that weren't reiterated repeatedly. I really liked it. I'm glad the years between this publication and the previous showed some growth and honed skill.

It brought a smile full of warmth out of my heart, while is crushed it with the agony of feeling every emotion the words held.
