Reviews

[Danielle Palmer · Rating 3 out of 5]

As with the other books in this series, I enjoyed many of the poems. The longer stories felt very overdone. Poems alone would probably be 4 stars

[Kusal Perera · Rating 3 out of 5]

Interesting side of human relationships. Some stories seem a little exaggerated, though. Yet quite readable. Would have been good if the collection of poems and stories had other cultures included, instead of the North American life.
