informative fast-paced

 I just finished listening to the audiobook of this and I feel very confident in my ability to potty train my child. I think that this approach is very straight forward and easy to follow. I am hoping that my child will be one that catches on quickly but I do know that it could take some time.
I feel like the author really laid everything out in this book to give you the most information with out it feeling like an overload. I also like how the author gives you things to say and things not to say. As someone who is trying to do more gentle parenting I really appreciated that this to and not to say sections.
I feel like this is an approach to potty training that is really going to work for us for our current toddler and our twins when they reach being ready to potty train.

I will say that I am not someone who usually reads short stories because I feel like there isn’t enough world building in them to get me as a reader fully invested. 
I do think that this story pulls you in immediately which is a plus. I liked how much I liked our main character with how little time we get to spend with her. 
My biggest issue with this book is that consistent was not given by the main character and I feel like that is important. 
I know there are plenty of people out there who will really enjoy this story I just don’t think I was the right audience for it. 
On the plus side though I thought the writing was fantastic and look forward to checking out more from this author because I really liked their writing style.
funny lighthearted medium-paced

I do enjoy a good office romance! I think that this story was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed the aspects of our main character and her journey of loving herself after a break-up. 
The romance for me was exactly what I wanted out of this story. I think the love interest while a bit of an ass at first really grew on me. 
I feel like the storytelling was done very well there were just a few grammatical errors that pulled me out of the story. 
Overall I did enjoy and look forward to reading more from this author.

I really don’t know how to review this because I have such mixed feelings. 
I feel like each poem was devastatingly dark which is what I think the author was going for, but the collection as a whole didn’t make sense to me. 
I will be the first to admit that poetry is not something I read often so I really could have just missed the point. 
I will say that the collection did make me feel things so that is why I gave it 3 out of 5 stars.
