Random ramblings:

In the beginning of the month I felt a reading slump coming, so I did the only thing I could think of, ditched all the books I was currently reading and picked up some comics and poetry, and a tiny book I have already read before. And it worked. I went back to the other books after that and even though I didn't finish them, I actually got a good few pages read in them. So, I would say, I managed to avoid the reading slump.
I'm also now up to date on all the podcasts I listen to and have to wait for new episodes, so I actually have the time to pick up books LOL

PEOPLE. PEOPLE OF THE INTERNET!!!

This is poetry at it's absolute finest.
I just read through this and I went through so many emotions. DAMN!!!!

This is beautiful. Heartbreaking. Eye opening.

THIS IS EVERYTHING.

I need more from her!!!

Beautiful language. Passionate verse that makes you feel as if it is resonating out of you, you're somehow creating it out of your own emotions. Powerful stuff.

So, I'm not sure if I've really talked about it on here but if you follow me on Twitter you've probably seen it, but basically I love poetry. I'm a huge poetry lover. Anyway, I found out about this author through Tumblr, and by extension Twitter, and even on those sites, a lot of the words that this author wrote spoke to be deeply--as a person of color, as a woman, as a woman of color, pain and loss, love. A lot of the poems I read I found myself nodding furiously and just agreeing with. 

While this book does contain a lot of her work from online, there are still that are new and weren't posted online. And even if it was just a compilation of her online work, I'd still consider reading it because of just how lovely and deep her words went for me personally. 

This was a quick read; most of the poems are kind of short and don't go on for too long. This is not a bad thing, and I love how the author is able to get the point across with the lines/words that are used. 

I could go on and on why I like this book of poetry. I really could. I seriously recommend reading.
