break your glass slippers by Amanda Lovelace
2.0
I think the message of this poetry collection is very meaningful and important and undoubtedly these words will resonate with many people who desperately need to hear them. It's also written in a very accessible and digestible style. This poetry collection is by no means bad, it just isn't for me, though I certainly resonated with some of the themes touched upon.
The reason I didn't particularly care for this collection is because this style of poetry isn't all that inspiring/interesting to me. Personally, I don't really love poetry that simply tells the reader what it wants to say, maybe with some interesting formatting. Poetry is so much about the words themselves, and how they're put together, and Lovelace's style simply isn't what I prefer to read.
However, as a whole I'd still recommend this collection without reservations, especially to teenagers!
