I would've liked this collection to be alittle bit tighter, like keeping to the red line. But it was a little bit everywhere. Some of the poems are beautiful and had me thinking but some fell flat.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the eArc in exchange for my honest opinions.

No se como sentirme con este poemanrio. Fue tan soso, pero a la vez la pluma quizo mover algo en mi, pero fue tan tan soso. Siento que la autora tiene qeu mejorar en la imagen de los poemas.

This is an interesting concept for a poetry book. Like haikus in a warped mirror that turns simplicity into beauty.

I enjoyed the craft that went into shaping these words; particularly because I know how difficult it can be to write poetry within the limitations of a certain syllable or character count.

Also, I love any reflection on nature and I felt not only future-facing criticisms of a wasted world (still beautiful), but also emotional reflections of the world (entirely personal)

Being able to see myself in even one of these pieces, to me, is the magic of poetry. My favorite poem from this collection is FALL.

Thank you #NetGalley for this digital ARC.

These poems are very charming, but I felt there was something a little bit twee about them. Jane Batten covers a range of subjects in her collection and readers will find something to enjoy here.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC
