Lovelace is my favorite poet, hands down. So much of what she writes I can relate to, even though I'm sure we've had very different life experiences. I do wish that I had read the books in order, but since they don't have a particular narrative format, it's kinda whatever. I love her encouragement of finding your own voice, and some of the poems I wish I could get tattooed on my heart. I hope I get to read [book:The Witch Doesn't Burn in This One|35924698] sooner rather than later! ( )

Não achei tão ruim como o segundo nem "bom" como o primeiro. A poesia não me cativou, a escrita não é bonita e não consegui ver nada de bom.
Saudades de quando eu achava tudo legal. ( )

Spring 2019;

I have no idea how this book ended up slipping through the cracks. I read this book earlier this spring, or last Christmas as an ARC from Netgalley for an honest review. I madly love everything about Amanda's trilogy of books and how they come round to the women regaining their voices, their tails, and their crowns. About how even the worst in the world, which is discussed in the earlier books and is so important and clear and painful, cannot actually bring them to their knees or bellies for long.

I truly cannot wait to see what poetry and prose come out next from her. ( )

The only reason it gets two stars is because of the Nikita Gill poem in here. The rest was just a slog. ( )

Thanks to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC to review

I am so beyond excited to have an ARC of this y'all have no idea. I literally jumped in joy when I saw this on my Netgalley.

It is very rare to find poetry books that do not make me cringe and I relate to mostly. This is one of those rare ones. Amanda Lovelace and her feminist poetry collections is one of my favorite collections ever to had stumbled upon. They were easy to read for me and easy to understand, but they really sunk deep. There is not much to say aside from this was also my favorite out of her Women Are Some Kind of Magic series. This was the least cliche, it was cohesive, and ultimately the one that made me feel the most nostalgic while sticking to me long after I have read the passage. ( )
