4.5 stars rounded down. I will read anything Leslie Jamison writes. Her prose is excellent, so excellent that I never even care what she’s writing about because I know she’ll make it compelling. ‘Splinters’ weaves between heartbreak, motherhood, sobr ...more |

"2.5 rounded up
Great premise, terrific pacing, but the book just fell flat for me. I think the plot suffers a bit from a personality crisis. There is not enough focus on either major plotline to really make the reader feel enough of what's really at s" Read more of this review » |

| ‘The Moon That Turns You Back’ had an incredible arc, one that unfolded slowly & subtly over the course of its 100-ish pages. These poems are so beautifully penned, almost effortlessly so, and creative with form. Alyan navigates everything from break ...more | |

"There are some great story elements in this novel--like her sister's, this story has endured for a reason. However, I couldn't get into it as much as Wurthering Heights or the Austen novels I've read. The scathing lampooning of the patriarchy is grea"

“In retrospect I can see that you gave me very little

like that, before.
With purpose. Without begging for it.
I took what I was offered and ran.”

“There isn’t much that scares me more than my own heart, a monster of tenderness. I have an irrational fear that I’ll wake to find it perched at the foot of my bed, begging to be torn apart, consumed in the name of compassion. And that’s incredibly terrifying for a few different reasons but mainly because I’d do it. I’ve never needed an excuse to sacrifice myself for love. I’m a martyr for everything soft. I confess to you: I’d bleed for anything if it held me the right way. I confess: I have. I have.”
