Physically, the book is mini & cute, which warrants its own star.

It's the kind of poetry book that talks about masturbation & sex & you pretend not to be put off by it because you are an open-minded 21st century woman, & need to maintain a reputation as such.

I loved lots in here. Queen Catherine Cohen says very funny & very millennial things like,

"I did not sleep well last night
and am still reeling from the time
I slept with someone who didn't know
who Greta Gerwig is"

I picked up this book solely because of the cover art so I really didn't know what I was getting myself into. An interesting collection of poetry that ranges from introspection, sex, New York City, UTIs, ex boyfriends, and more. I'm not a great critic of poetry so I'm not sure how this rates as a whole - but it was very interesting. I really liked the poem titles and there were a few standouts that I re-read - but overall the collection was just ok. If you're looking for humorous, edgy, and unique then you will love this collection. If the TV show, Girls, had a book of poetry based off it - I assume it would be this exact collection.
