Tender is the Body by Alise Versella
4.0
This was a spur of the moment random find on Netgalley that stood out and spoke to me purely from the cover alone!
A short but sweet collection that explores womanhood from a woman’s body to intimacy to sex to love to life from a feminist’s POV in the rawest and most visceral way. I read this twice just for the heck of it. I loved the metaphors and the prose the author used was both beautiful and brutal. A lot of emotion in just a few pages (literally, it’s like 30 pages).
Some of my faves were….
~ The Steam from Underground
Reminds Me of Sex
~ Tender Is the Body
~ Love Harder, Love Still
~ The Procession of the Year
~ Opulent Women, Praise Your
Virtuosity
~ A Spell to Love Again
~ Step Lightly Through This
Grove

If you’re looking for a very short and sweet but well put together little collection of feminist poetry, pick this up July 14th. It would be a perfect little summer read with the various mentions of fruit and summer.
