These poems of memory and girlhood are powerful evocations of the changing body and the male gaze. A raw, absurdist humour provides a sense of defiance throughout, and the tone is in turns sad, angry, rue. – Hannah Lowe

gobbled this up in one sitting! I love how Laurie writes about girlhood and womanhood so tenderly and truthfully, romanticising elements like we all do but then holding the darker parts up to the light so the reader has to face them.
this collection took me through feelings I’d forgotten about and ones I’d never quite figured out how to describe until I read them in these poems.
will definitely be referring back to this collection 💛
