I’m not a huge poetry reader, but I enjoyed this collection! There were several standout poems for me including The Reclaiming, The OUTside & the INside Joke, and No Tradebacksies x infinity, among other poems. I do think the synopsis may be a little misleading though, because I saw very few retellings of fairy tales and mythological stories. But then again, I’m not the best reader of poetry, so I may have missed something. I did enjoy this book and I feel like it’ll be a great audiobook one day because a lot of these poems would be even more beautiful when read aloud!
Thank you Button Poetry and NetGalley for this arc. All opinions are my own.
