Lots of good things here. I enjoyed it and will return to try many of the exercises. Some have already resulted in poems. And I have lots of notes and ideas for others. I especially liked the model poems and exercises based on them. Many of the craft tips were very good, too. (Pleased to see Julie Kane represented here! And I really liked Lee Upton's Craft Tip on revision.) I was less keen on the author interviews about particular poems.

This is an excellent and practical guide for practicing poets. This is a beyond-the-beginners book that skips fluff and cheering for hands-on writing prompts that get the mind working and the pen rolling.
