This is my first time reading Kiki Petrosino, but it won't be my last. I'm so in love with her style, which blends the traditional and modern in both content and style in a way that I find irresistible. A new favourite and one I would wholeheartedly recommend.

Some of the poems in this collection are just amazing, but others struck me as too vague in their message and too academic or stylized in form, at least for my tastes. Petrosino is very comfortable with the form villanelle but with so many in this book, the repetition began to wear on me.

While I absolutely think Kiki Petrosino is a good poet and she is has a strong handle on her voice and form, none of these poems resonated with me in particular. I am interested to revisit later and see if I feel differently. Sometimes I think poetry more than fiction can strike you completely differently at different times. This time, I wasn't vibing as much as I thought I would, but I definitely think she has talent.

Glorious poems about the mess of being a grown woman.
