very informative and reflective on my personal life. the part that stood out most was def the "Bodies Lost in History" abt women being non-consensually used for medical practice and abt forgotten/unknown women:(( i liked the mentions of growing up in blackgirlhood tho, very nostaligic. idk overall a very fine book, i learned, i teared up, i smiled, i empathized, i sighed. id reread a few of the poems if i got the chance i think. jasmine's a great writer and knows how to grab your attention with descriptive storytelling and rlly knows how to set a scene which i appreciate.

Jasmine Mans weaved together an excellent poetry collection which is extremely relatable to all Black women, no matter their age. I enjoyed her versatility in regards to poetry forms, some of which I had never seen before and found refreshing.

An amazing collection by a black queer woman poet. Poems that I keep coming back to - the ideas and word playing back in my head.
