This book looks deeply in the mind of someone that is in love with a person but it also looks at what it is like to look at someone through the eyes of infatuation. With the different parts that are present in the book, readers can sense that the author is growing and mentally everything is changing. This book can be look at something sexual in nature, no doubt that the author is tapping into that mentality, but I was able to look at it as something sensual that made me think about how I view people through the lens of their body.

There was nothing I wanted to change about this lovely book. The poetry was great. While there times in which I had to re-read the poetry in order to fully grasp it, that it the point of poetry. To make a person sometimes think and attempt to grasp it but at the same time, I was able to fully enjoy the poems without too much thought.

I thoroughly enjoyed this collection.

You want to find out how your body when from being a poem to a ticking time bomb! Some of the poems are a little a lot of spicy and they are balanced with the more tender moments of appreciation and love for your partner.

This is a recommendation to gift to your significant other.

Thank you so much The Roaring Lion Newcastle for allowing me to read this ARC of "What Do I Call My Love For Your Body?" in exchange for my honest review and thoughts.

This was absolutely amazing. It was raw and provocative and intimate. I loved how off limits the author spoke, nothing was far away to be written into an art form. The use of nuanced metaphors made this all the more enjoyable. There were many parts of this poetry book that I thought were a little too sensual or visualizing, but that made it even more personal.

The author clearly wrote with great devotion and admiration and that's something that doesn't always translate well from feeling to a written word. I seriously enjoyed this novel as a whole and I cannot wait to read more of the author's works if they're this well written.
