I think it's safe to say Andrea Gibson is one of my favorite poets.

I just don't think contemporary romances are my thing.

I'm sad to have to put this book down. 

However, these poems are hitting way to hard for my grieving and mentally ill ass to give them the time they deserve. I am absolutely picking this back up when I'm doing better. 

I also have it out as an ILL and I literally don't have enough time to sit with it the way I'd need/ want to. I'd like to own the book so I can take all the time I need to read it. 

The writing is phenomenal and hard hitting. The author has included footnotes for every reference. And there's notes on the back to further explain everything. 

This book deserves time. Time to be read and time to further your own research into the history mentioned. 

"Where we start is doesn't have to be where we end up" a beautiful quote followed by a hilariously embarrassing moment that only Monty and Percy could get into. And somehow have it end happy and cute. 

Also Skippio (I read this as an audiobook so I can't go find exactly how to spell his name) is an amazing person. Everyone deserves to have a Skippio in their life.

Fuck, that was a damn good book!

I felt like there were scenes missing from this book. Especially near the end.

I had no idea why Julie and Selena we fighting.
