This book had some really strong pieces. Lines that brought up very poignant memories. Overall though, I felt that this was lacking. There were poems that didn’t make much sense to me and they were hard to follow. I just kept hearing Bob Fink’s voice in the background saying “Jasmine, this is why you shouldn’t write that” and I think of my poems and the way I altered them.

I found this collection personable and approachable. It is inventive enough to feel inspiring and distinct, but not so much so that it loses you. It’s what I’ve seen others call “eye-level.”
I found the motherhood poems especially touching.

Really great poetry. Easy to read and some really thought provoking poems as well. Had a few of them that I really liked and I am not a poetry person at all. Got to listen to her read some live in Tampa and that was really great too :)

I have fallen in love with Aimee Nezhukumatathil; her gorgeous poems flow with the pulse of life--love, pregnancy, child-bearing, child-raising, and the agonizing anticipation of death. Each poem tells an intriguing story--sometimes the title alone ("The Mascot of Beavercreek High Breaks Her Silence," "Suppose You Were a Moray Eel")--about little girls growing up near a mental asylum or a tower in India where birds feed on the dead.
