ARC review; thanks to SS Atria Marketing for sending me NetGalley access to this ebook. Pub date: Mar 04 2025. 

Poetry is very hit-or-miss for me. I think it's probably the most subjective form of written expression. You either relate to it and understand it or you don't. And sure, you can learn how to understand technique and stuff, but I mean understanding as in being able to feel and connect with what the poems are expressing. 

This collection didn't work for me because I personally didn't connect with the poems, but I appreciate it for still making me think about themes of belonging, beauty, and more.
