emotional funny slow-paced

4.5

I like how this book incentivizes you to slow down. That might not be unique and is actually just an aspect of poetry in general. But poetry as a craft is not something I thought about that much before meeting my wife. 

It took vulnerability for this author to reveal her messy feelings to the world, thoughts that I have thought during heartbreak as well. The idea of sharing that with anyone, let alone complete strangers you'll never meet, is very scary to me. It's one of those books that reveals the beauty and comedy within sadness.
