I totally enjoyed this story. It does take some time to find your way in this world as the speech and language used is a little confusing. Once you get used to the world it's difficult to put this book down.

Funny, interesting and thought provoking.

Beautifully written by a talented poet. But I honestly did not enjoy this collection. I'm a little traumatized by it.
I recognize it as art and representations of feelings and experiences ingeniously shared i poetry. I will not be the same after reading it.

5.4 stars. Really powerful and humbling. This made me evaluate my attitudes and perspective.

Everyone is fighting a battle.

Very interesting and imaginative.
To enjoy this book it is important to consider the time and place it was written otherwise it may seem rediculous.

An enjoyable book overall but the ending felt a little rushed and flat.

Perfect Cozy fall reading.

Such a cute an thoughtful book.

Beautifully written but I enjoys Lovelace's other poetry books more

There are some amazing quotes and thoughts in the book. I feel conflicted about it. I appricaite the points of view presented and enjoyed hearing the stories of misfits. Sometimes it seems to present misfit's as special club that many of us don't qualify for.

Dark morbid humor. I felt guilty for laughing at parts.

These books are so relatable inspiring and touching.

Well written but a bummer story.

Dark intense and powerful

Interesting book. Well researched and well written. It was so slow. I listed on audiobook otherwise I would not have finished.

oh...my...heart. This author does an excellent job at bringing historical events to the forefront. Why wasn't I taught any of this in history class? I learn so much from her stories and it awakens so much respect for the people who lived through these times.

The 2 stars represent my enjoyment not on the quality. While it was well written. I felt bummed out and angry though the book. The last few chapters have some very upsetting events I can't make peace with.

4.5 stars. I love the recipes in it.

I really loved this book. I thought the story was unique and interested. I felt an emotional connection with the characters, and I felt I understood them.

Too steamy for my comfort, but a fun story.

It started off good, but then it dragged on and got really rediculous.

3.75 stars. This was very well written and had a very good plot I just didn't love the story. The first part was so sad and depressing. Although it gets better and more hopeful I still get so bummed about the plot of women during this time.
