The collection of poems is considered “horror” with some HP Lovecraft tones but I'd say it wasn't too horrific. I did like a few of the poems, as the meaning was clear and powerful but the rest fell short.

I don't understand using the terms “I is,” when “I am” would have allowed the poem to flow, but to each their own. The writing is confusing at times and a bit wordy. I understand poetry is different than novels but if the author wrote with more clarity, I feel their would be more positive feedback.

At times the topics were a bit shallow, specifically the poems about autographs from famous rappers. I don't understand the significance of celebrities.

One and done for me.

I received this as an e-ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
