Beautiful submitted by bcartm01 on June 21, 2022, 8:57pm Beautiful poems by an incredible author. This is her first book of poetry that I’ve read and I really enjoyed it.

Maybe an unfair rating submitted by asangtani on August 2, 2023, 10:04pm With the caveat that I'm not a huge poetry fan in general, I much prefer the author's dystopian fictional books to her poetry.
