bbknn 's review for:
Whiskey, Words, and a Shovel I
by r.h. Sin
This book attracted me the moment I saw it. The smooth cover and small size reminded me of Milk and Honey (which I just read for the first time as I read this).
I love direct poetry and many of these poems really stuck out to me as either being motivational or reflective of my own life, but I did have one nagging issue.
I wish it was more organized. It’s organized in a stream of consciousness, which is fine until you compare it with Kaur’s. Sin could have divided it into a couple of sections ( i.e. ‘to the woman reading,’ ‘the heartbreak,’ and ‘the growth.’ ) Some poems are clearly to empower the females in his audience and are next to a poem where he is upset about his exes or his past.
Other than that, if you like modern direct poems, you’ll enjoy it.
