Thanks to NetGalley I had the possibility to read a digital copy of this book. And what can I say except. Wow. Like I loved it. Some poetry were really disturbing. But the all together was just great. And I discovered a lot of new authors and I want to read all of their work

"When you turn yourself
inside out like that
I don't know how
to hold you" ~Miriam H. Harrison, When You
I'M IN THIS!!!
Full transparency, even without my obvious bias, I would have still given this ALL THE ACHINGLY BEAUTIFUL STARS!
I am incredibly honored to have a piece in this glorious anthology of fiercely talented badass poets!

Stunningly frightful, these poems do what the title says. With a dark beauty and truth, they explore the ways in which the body of women: queer and straight; the bodies of non binary individuals have been so abused and judged, but they also highlight the power in rebellion and the triumph of acceptance.
Moderate: Body horror and Body shaming
Minor: Fatphobia, Sexual violence, and Domestic abuse
