Wild Embers: Poems of Rebellion, Fire and Beauty by Nikita Gill

2.0

Solidly OK. The kind of book that I might have gotten into as a sensitive teenager, with the cosmic ideas and imagery drawing me in and the subverted fairytale princess trope keeping me hanging around to the end, but the adult I am now wanted something a bit less self-care self aware and more challenging.

This is simple stuff, even if the themes aren't and I found it too light for my taste. Poetry is always a hard one to judge- it either resonates with you or it doesn't. This collection didn't.
