To think my little book is two years old today. If I can't give it 5 stars as a 2nd birthday present, when can I?

It's good to see a YA book that doesn't shy away from the darkness of its themes and content. I liked the characters and the sense of climax and resolution was great.

The story didn't really do anything for me but I really liked the art style and colour palette.

Some might say it's a little excessive buying a book that only has one poem in it, and whilst this may make for a tiny book indeed, it's one I'm more than happy to own.

'B' is one of my favourite poems and having a physical version (alongside some simple illustrations) that I can go back to again and again is wonderful.

This would also make a beautiful little gift from any parent to their child and vice versa.

I feel so lucky to have one of these super limited edition poetry books, written in aid of charity.

Campbell's love of fairy tales and magical realism shines through in these whimsical, playful, dreamlike poems. It's a collection I know I'll dip in and out of many times.

Oh, and take a look at that glorious cover.
