emotional inspiring reflective fast-paced

This is a very mixed collection. There are some good poems, but a lot were meh or even bad. The artwork was stunning. My biggest problem is that it harolds itself as an lgbtq+ inclusive collection, but includes a bioessentialist poem by a terf (The Period Poem by Dominique Christina). Also, like other people have said, it's very annoying that some of the poems are sideways. Some of the poems don't seem to fit the book's feminist message; Growing Up by Melody Lee is very "not like other girls". Overall, I can't recommend this book.
