All the Words Are Yours: Haiku on Love by Tyler Knott Gregson
3.0
I love Tyler's work. He's the only poet I actively follow. Everything he writes is lovely and magical and feels effortless.
That being said, I had a harder time with this particular collection. Because each piece is a haiku, it's tough to really latch on to any of the poems, to really be captivated and sink my teeth into them, simply because they are each so short. When it alternates between longer pieces and shorter, I find that a bit easier to enjoy.
Please understand three stars is GOOD, the content is GOOD, it is simply a personal disliking of the formatting in this case. Still worth your time.
