faeryhne 's review for:
Pretty Boys Are Poisonous: Poems
by Megan Fox
"you mistook me for a possession
when i was a nuclear weapon all along"
Rating: 3.5/5 ✰
Summary:
This definitely feels like reading Megan Fox's diary, which makes it a bit of a polarizing read since people seem to either love or hate her. While it's criticized for being written in that trendy poetry style similar to what's on tumblr or instagram, that being considered a flaw and not just a medium honestly seems a bit snobby to me. Don't get me wrong, I definitely don't think her writing is perfect - this is her first collection of poetry iirc- but she is still creating something relatable and meaningful.
She covers subjects like abuse, narcissism, fame, love, motherhood, miscarriages, spirituality, and more while surrounding her prose with stunning, mystical artworks by Audrey Kawasaki. This was an absolute delight for me, it perfectly captured the vibes of feminine sensuality, innocence, and mystery. If you like this poetry style, sensual art, Megan Fox, and/or can relate to the themes in the collection, then I'd recommend giving it a try.
Closing thoughts:
Women reclaiming their power will never get old for me ♡
also I got stalked today at b&n while getting this book so it's extra relatable to read today, yay! I love being a woman!!
"you'd be so much more handsome if you'd get an exorcism"
when i was a nuclear weapon all along"
