Urbanshee by Siaara Freeman
5.0
Thank you to netgalley for providing an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
Urbanshee is actually the first poetry book I have read. I was nervous that I wouldn't "get" it to be honest, but the synopsis really drew me in.
I actually cried while reading this. I know that's really cliche given that it's poetry, and it should also be known I cry very easily, but that's not the point. This book felt very raw, vulnerable, and open, to me. There are a lot of heavy topics discussed, and although I cannot relate to most of them, the way the author writes about grief really resonated with me.
Overall I really loved this, I will be recommending it to friends and will probably try more poetry in the future.
