Another fabulous selection of poems and musings from Hollie McNish, she never fails to make me question everything and I've tabbed multiple poems to go back to.

I enjoyed this book as much as I enjoyed Slug - the blend of personal reflections/essays and poetry works brilliantly. Hollie has a very powerful and articulate voice and it is wonderful to spend time feeling luke you're both learning from her and having a chat with her.

I messaged my friends about so, so many parts of this book - from polling our WhatsApp chat on what we were taught to call our vulva to messaging a friend with some absolutely beautiful information about the DNA of a child remaining in the mother's body.

I'm not a mum, so the motherhood elements were ones I could appreciate not powerfully feel, but all the sections that I could powerfully feel were ones that made me sit back and really reflect on my life.

A beautiful and very needed book.
