Devil's Lake by Sarah M. Sala

3.0

Thank you Netgalley for giving me an ARC of this book in exchange of an honest review.

This is a book that is kind of hard to follow. I struggled to do so. It had science references at moments and hard words that i didn't understand being English my second language. After i got comfortable with the author's writing style and had opened a dictionary it went smoother but still its really hard to understand some of the poems so beware when you start reading the book that you need to be familiar with poetry.

I am gonna be honest and say that there were poems i did not enjoy. However, some of them made me cry. The topics vary from science to sexuality to harsher themes such as shootings and an attack agiants two girls that left one of them dead.

I did enjoy the book but i wasn't ready for the difficulty it had so i didn't enjoy it as much as i could. Still, iw ould highly recommend it to people qho like poetry, it is worth it i swear.
