| I borrowed this audiobook from the library and now know I need to read it in print. It's hard to explain how hard this book hit me, how moving it was. I suppose part of it is its continued relevance. Frankl's critique of the United State's overemphas ...more | |

| Oh my gosh, this book is brilliant, and I should buy it so I can reread it. Of course it's overdue at the library. The poems are funny and heartbreaking in equal measure. I can relate to loving poetry/literature with this kind of fierceness and comin ...more | |

| Continuing with my dive into the work of Andrea Gibson, I loved this book. Some of the poems gave me such an ache, especially "Etiquette Leash." Such self-recognition. Some of the poems left me breathless, near tears. What verve, what life. ...more | |

| I'm so excited to discuss this at book group this Sunday (at our home). It was a natural successor to *After Sappho,* and I haven't read it in ages, not since college. It's so playful and fun, really applicable to gender conversations happening today ...more | |
