I understand why this is all the rage. It is angsty, it is real and it is amazing! Every single page was brimming with marvelous writing that just captures the emotions in such a wonderful way.

Everything Amanda Lovelance writes is powerful and makes me feel things I always had inside of me, but didn't knew how to put in words, and this one wasn't different. Love it and will re-read it many times for sure.

A wonderful installment in this series of poetry, I felt that this had clear progression from the first book whilst still sticking to Lovelace's signature style.

This was such an excellent read...it filled me with the rage of generations of women and made me feel understood. Empowered.

There's something unequivocal about seeing yourself as a witch with powers who is untouchable by men and all their crustiness. The pain and fury in the author's poems was balanced with power and strength, and it was literally some of the most lyrical words I've ever read.

If the princess saves herself has an overarching theme of hope, than the Witch doesn’t burn’s theme is anger.

Full of fire, Lovelace tackles themes of abuse and revenge with sharp emotional punches that hit. A cathartic read, that might not be for everyone but can definitely find satisfied readers in any person who has felt a deep anger in their chest and wasn’t sure where to direct it. Lovelace’s answer seems to be clear, poetry is outlet to try.

As always I love Amanda Lovelace. I have purchased just about all of her poetry collections and feel a deep connection with her writing in general but also with her writing style. I will always recommend Amanda Lovelace to friends as a beginner modern poetry read, but also for anyone looking for more modern poetry to read. She is an all-around amazing writer perfect for anyone interested in modern poetry.

This one was not as a good as her first collection of poems. It made felt like she was more angrier in this one and felt borderline radical femism. It was a good concept but I couldn't connect with it.

Unfortunately, I enjoyed the first one more than the following books. I think it has to do with the unexpected joy I experienced from the first book and the subject was more novel to me. I felt the same way with Sarah Andersens first book and the subsequent books. Number 1 was five stars to me while the others fall flat.

As always, Amanda Lovelace delivers beautiful poetry in such an open and honest way. Letting her personality shine through while still speaking on things that every woman with a bit of inner feminist fire can relate to. I love her poetry and will continue to be a huge fan.

absolutely sensational. I've bought all her other books. Lovelace has a way with words. It's crazy how every poem in some way I can relate to.

see my problem with this book / writer is that they're problematic. soooo. yeah i don't wanna say anything further about this author. anyways.

4.5

This was such an empowering poetry collection, unlike anything I've ever read. The overall theme is feminism and the oppression of women (through the example of the witch-hunts) but what I really appreciated was the way in which Lovelace honored the women that came before us and the path they lead for us to follow.

This book aims to empower and to give courage to whoever reads it, and there's no reason for me not to support that.

Overall, my favorite so far from this author!

Love Amanda Lovelace's poetry so much. I know insta poetry gets a lot of scathing contempt and bad press because it seems easy to most, but Lovelace outshines all. Her poetry makes you sit with the discomfort of knowing what she tells you through her words.
I won't use superlatives, but it does make you contemplate a lot about things.

The sequel to the princess saves herself in this one, I fell in love with Amanda Lovelace's writing even more, if that's even possible. I'm excited to see what they have next.

'The Witch Doesn't Burn in this One' is an amazing and empowering poetry collection. I definitely recommend it, if you enjoy reading poetry!

Does it get any better than Amanda Lovelace at this point? Her words strike you right in the heart and give you new confidence. Just powerful in a minimalistic way.

I didn't like this as much as The Princess Saves Herself in this One but I still enjoyed a lot of the poems

I loved this as much as I loved Amanda's first poetry collection and just like when I read that, I felt my poetry writing creativity coming back as I read the fantastic poems Amanda wrote into this one. I can't wait to recommend it to people at my work.

I thought I loved Princess (The Princess Saves Herself in this one) more than Witch, but I loved them both for different reasons. I also have the third book so I can’t wait to post that review. Where Princess speaks more of self-love and self-acceptance, Witch is about taking all that self-love and -acceptance and using it to show others you are unafraid of them or the world or trials that appear in your path. Witch is about facing those who said ‘you can’t’ with a ‘watch me’.

Witch is also about reminding yourself you’re strong, that you can go ahead. It’s about finding that power within you and using it. It’s a message to the world that we will fight back. We will let you know when we’ve had enough and we’ll stand up and I mean, I think if you read this poetry books, you’d probably find that out.

Lovelace has quickly become one of my favourite poets. I believe I found her on Pinterest – or a few of her quotes and really liked it! Which is cool because I’m slowly getting into expanding my list of genres I read.

This book is a whirlwind. Amanda has a way with words that I just love. Her poetry is raw, powerful, and not afraid to go there. I loved the usage of witches throughout the collection and found this to be a great follow up to her previous collection. I am excited to see where she takes her poetry next.
