I Left Nothing Inside on Purpose by Stevie Howell

3.0

I love reading poetry but I certainly find it harder to review than a novel, it just feels so subjective and personal. I loved the title and message behind I left nothing inside on purpose by Stevie Howell, but the poems themselves I often had a difficult time connecting with. It's a quiet collection filled with thoughtful pauses, examining moments and places. While it wasn't a collection I fell in love with, I left nothing inside on purpose is a short book interspersed with beautiful phrases, so if you are looking for a new book of contemporary poetry to read, I would consider this.
