The Hurting Kind: Poems by Ada Limón

emotional reflective medium-paced

4.5

 The Hurting Kind is a poetry collection by America’s first Latina Poet Laureate. It’s organised by season with many of the poems focussed on nature, but some delve into tonight, more personal subjects like abusive relationships and joint custody. An accessible, mostly soothing collection. I loved listening to the audio (read by the author) while reading.
