Short and sweet collection. First time reading Limon, though I do enjoy listening to The Slowdown. Enjoyed her voice. I have a feeling this isn’t her best collection. Will definitely explore more of her work.

I can acknowledge that these are well written, they’re just not for me. There were a few pieces that stood out, and I will probably still explore other work from Limón.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! “Calling Things What They Are” and “It’s the Season I Often Mistake” are two standouts for me, but the whole collection is impeccable and heart-wrenching.

A fan of poetry I am not. However I devoured this and enjoyed every single bite of it. Highly recommend!

Ada Limón has become my favourite poet of all times. Sometimes her poetry reminds me of Mary Oliver but with a different touch related to more modern times. I really love how Limón approaches her connection to nature. Long story short: I am completely in love with Limon’s poetry.
