Fuck, this book. The whole book. And the last three poems. Sobbing through them.

Brilliant. So so good.

I loved this one. Sprawling, intimate, full of dreams and water.

Forever favorite.

Somewhere Roxane Gay wrote "I was stunned to stillness" about a book. I can't remember where. Maybe it was a blurb? Anyway I think about that a lot because it is a very specific feeling I get with some books. Being stunned into stillness. This book did that. Incredible.

No one is more surprised than me by the strength of my dislike for this book.

Did not understand. Was completely lost and therefore totally bored.
