Is This Scary?: Poems by Jacob Scheier

challenging dark emotional fast-paced

Not going to be rating this one as it's Scheier's own personal experience with mental illness and I find the vulnerability in sharing that experience incredibly brave and impossible to rate. Overall, I wasn't a huge fan of the poetry style, but I appreciated what he had to say and related to a lot of it! I was tremendously confused at about half of this collection and couldn't even comprehend what was meaning to be told. At the same time, I did relate to a lot of it and found some pieces really moving. Overall, an interesting poetry collection.
