A review by mrtvavrana
Sea of Strangers by Lang Leav

emotional slow-paced

2.5

 

I rarely read poetry nowadays because I often struggle to find anything that would resonate with me. 

 

Just like with Sea of Strangers, sometimes I get my hopes up and then I end up disappointed. I did find multiple poems and prose I really loved, but I found this collection a little dry and quite repetitive. 

 

Another thing I definitely did not like is the size of this particular edition. There is so much empty space, and for what? I own multiple poem collections that are smaller than my phone, so I simply cannot understand this trend (or how to call it?) of mostly empty books. 

 

Either way! I will probably give Laev another chance in the future, but I will definitely be getting an ebook this time.
