Like you, I also found this collection a bit hard to get into but still enjoyed reading a new poet. I'll have my review up soon.

I feel as if poetry is even more something thing even more personal than a novel, speaking to each reader differently. I am sorry this collection didn't speak to you, Jenclair. It was nice of you to give it a chance though.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-27990213050912375102015-02-23T09:39:53.071-06:002015-02-23T09:39:53.071-06:00Thank you so much for being on the tour; I hope at...Thank you so much for being on the tour; I hope at a later time that these poems speak to you.
