The Truth of You: Poetry about Love, Life, Joy, and Sadness
by Iain S. Thomas
Thank you, NetGalley for this ARC of this poetry collection!
This author seems to just not know how to stick to one emotion or one subject. They give a sad poem then an inspirational one to try to make you feel hope. Sad then Hope Sad then Hope Sad then Hope Sad then Hope over and over again, it's like "OKAY, WE GET IT"
THEN they try to make it seem like you have no control over your future and no choice on how you succeed.
THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT THIS BOOK WAS THE WRITING STYLE. Iain has such a beautiful writing style so it's very unfortunate that his poems are so bad.
