I had a few favorites from The Most of It, which included "A Certain Swirl," "A Glass of Water," and "Some Nondescript Autumn Weekend." The rest weren't bad by any means, but many felt overlong or drawn out too far. This poetry book does take some patience to read, but there's always the possibility that I'm not the right audience for it. Poetry, as always, is completely subjective and open to interpretation.
