While there were several poems within this collection I felt a genuine interest in and personal connection with, overall, I found that most of the pieces held a very vague, generalistic style that doesn’t suit my personal preference. I was also very surprised at some of the content! I had never heard of any trigger warnings for this book, despite how heavily hyped it’s been, and I was in for quite a shock while reading it at work for the first time.
