A great selection of poetry, each telling a relatable & powerful story. With a mix of authors and poetry styles, this was a really fun quick read. I'm definitely going to check out more of these authors works & would recommend this book to others!

A beautiful, empowering collection of sisterhood and love. This collaboration of talented poets reminded me of the mystical games I would play with my childhood friend, when we would pretend to be among the fairies and mermaids.

This poetry collection was powerful and moving, with a strong feminist undercurrent that I definitely appreciated. Contemporary poetry is one of my favorite genres, so this book particularly resonated with me and reflected my tastes.

Such an empowering and beautiful collection of poetry. I've read works by most of the poets whose work was included in this anthology, and to read something written by all of the was absolutely wonderous. I love poetry, and this book is exactly why. Would recommend to anyone.

I enjoyed this collection, though Nikita Gill's poems resonated with me the most 💕

I have mixed feelings about this one. Some of the poems were really good and I liked the overall aspects of it, but I wasn't a fan of some of it. I like that these three women are so supportive of one another and wanted to show that, but I thought the poems about how great the others were could have been done in a better way. I think I went in expecting too much from this because I like each of the poets individually, but this was just a bit disappointing in that regard. I still highlighted a bunch of poems (which you can check out in my "highlights") but this is on KU so if you have that and want to check it out, do so. I'm not sure I will be picking up a physical copy.
