Her writing is so recklessly alive! I LOVE this book! I want to BE Sandra Cisneros. I want to be a black lace bra kind of woman❤️ Obsessed with this book, I have been since I was 16. When I first read it I based my entire personality and life philosophy on it. I’m returning to it again to remind myself what I find so thrilling about her poetry. I want to love the way she loves. Cisneros has an appetite for life that inspires me. She makes me excited to turn 30.
You will never regret reading this book!

I was an instant fan of Sandra Cisneros after reading The House on Mango Street and recently I’ve been exploring more of her work. I finished her short story collection Woman Hollering Creek and decided to venture into her poetry.
I was enchanted by the poetry collection with a provocative title fitting of la mujer fuerte Sandra, Loose Woman. This collection is charged with a seduction, a sensuality, that I found beguiling. Often women are quieted when the issue of sexuality arises. These poems are unapologetic, yet vulnerable, romantic but also menacing.
Quite honestly, the more I read by Sandra Cisneros, the more I adore her. Her voice is so authentic and relatable. Me parece una amiga, una comadre, una bruja. These poems display the magic she possesses.
My favorites include: You Bring Out the Mexican in Me, I Let Him Take Me, Dulzura, You Called Me Corazón, Night Madness Poem, Full Moon and You’re Not Here, With Lorenzo at the Center of the Universe, el Zócalo, Mexico City, Black Lace Bra Kind of Woman, Las Girlfriends.
(I guess I could have just said they’re all my favorites, given the length of the above list)
