Odd formatting

Some of the poems were very good, some of them have good ideas but poor execution.... but the odd formatting drove me crazy. The font of the first third of the book was one size, in the next third it shrank for no reason, then in the final third it shifted back and forth randomly. Some times there seemed to be a reason, at others it was just confusing.

I won this book in a Goodreads Giveaway.

I can appreciate all the work and heart that goes into writing poetry, but something about this felt unfinished to me. Also, the formatting was a mess.

I won this in a GoodReads giveaway. Some of the poems really moved me. Some of them seemed undeveloped, like I was reading a rambling journal. The Kindle edition was so poorly edited I couldn't finish all the way. It was just too distracting. I kept noticing spelling and formatting issues too much. That said, this poet has chops. I loved how he made me feel like a confidant in his world, a world I wouldn't otherwise feel (middle class, white suburban housewife here). He wore his heart on the page. I just wish his publisher had a better editor for him. Every good writer has a good editor standing behind him or her to support their art.
