Love & Misadventure by Lang Leav
2.0
1.5 stars
no.
no no no no no no no good gods no.
If you have noticed my recent books, they are all about romance. I like a boy (disgusting) and he's making me be a sappy typical teen that likes a boy and that's disgustingggggggggg ew (is it obvious i thought i was a lesbian until this man came around? yeah, am i used to liking a guy? absolutely not, it's weird, im getting used to it) ANYWAYSSSSS, because of this man Im very into romance now bcs i crave it so I decided to give Richard Siken a chance... 5/5 stars, brilliant, love him. Then I said, Neruda, no. Then Lang Leav...
NO NO AND NO.
I'm sorry but from all the poems I liked like 4. Some of them were just so... badly written? Idk how to explain it but they sound as my 5th grade class writing poems. Don't believe me? Please, try to guess which two are from the author and which two are from my friend who was a kid when she wrote these:
1. “He and I
When words run dry,
he does not try,
nor do I.
We are on par.
He just is,
I just am,
and we just are.”
2. "You play the guitar,
which is very impressive to me
because i can’t do much;
but if you ever give me a chance,
you might like me back."
3. "I see your smile walking down the hallway,
and my senses my betray me,
but I'm ready to write an essay,
on how much want to kiss you
under the lime tree
until we stop having senses. "
4. “Before I fell
in love with words,
with setting skies
and singing birds—
it was you I fell
in love with first.”
You might disagree with me but I see them quite similar, and it's sad bcs the author had 33 when when wrote the book, my friend was 11, ELEVEN.
Anyways, yeah, sucky book, I'll only give it 1.5 stars because the poem Closure made me realize i was an asshole with my ex.
no.
