Ash Krafton (ash_krafton) | 2 comments I'm seeking reviews of my first book of poetry:

The Scent of His Feathers A Collection of Dark Verses by Ash Krafton The Scent of His Feathers: A Collection of Dark Verses

From the early reviews:
“The poems in this book are both profound and personal, objective and reflective. They play with words and dance along the edges of the shadows. I delighted in the expressive imagery conjured and emotional infusion contained with the penned lines (some of my personal favourites were Hush, Six Words For Edgar, Gaslight Fancies, Passage, Natural Deception, Note To Self:, and Oubliette).
The Scent of His Feathers is superb, and I highly recommend this volume of poetry.”
--author AF Stewart

“This book is more than a simple collection of poems…the author has put together a story in prose and verse making it anything but ordinary… I would recommend this book for readers who enjoy not only poetry, but a story within the collection that lifts you up, brings you down, spins you, tosses you, surrounds you, keeps you going until the words run out and the end is reached.”
--author Colleen Michelle Johnson

If you think you’d like to read this collection and share your thoughts, I’d be glad to send you a free copy. Review copies are available in mobi, epub, and pdf formats. Sign up at this link (it goes to a Google form)

Thanks for your interest!
Cheers, Ash

Kim Black (kimblack) | 1 comments ★★ FREE FOR REVIEW: Moonchild Dreams by Nadia Gerassimenko ★★
Author Nadia Gerassimenko is looking for reviewers!
Genre: Poetry
Pages: 42
Blurb:
"Let us immerse into five imaginary and yet quite believable and relatable mythologies narrated by very mesmerizing Muses. The first to get you plunging are vocal melodies about strength, wonderment, and hope. The second is a struggle between love and its mirrored-self – an inevitable discovery of what true love is and how imitation fails to grasp its pure essence. The third are tales chanted forlornly by Sirens about love and loss and the unattainable, all lost in the abysmal sea. The fourth, less melancholy but profound nonetheless, are words of wisdom to live by from our Mother Nature. And lastly, you come to meet the Moonchild…a part of her inner world and dreams she dared to share."

Preeti G (preetig) | 21 comments 'The Little Girl and the River & Other Poems':

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZ65JDT

Summary: The book is a refreshing take on human emotions – love, sorrow, happiness and much more. The collection of poems is a passionate portrayal of the vitality of love that supersedes loneliness - of hope and optimism in difficult times, of the power of dreams, and of how courage and the determined human spirit ultimately triumphs over the pervasive malice around.
It is also a beautiful ode to women power, fighting adversities with hope and true grit, of their remarkable endurance and selfless devotion.
The poetry is inspiring and uplifting, in that it celebrates the power of the human spirit - of dreams and optimism and the ultimate victory of the resolute human soul over the vagaries of life.

Sample poem:

The Little Girl and the River


The little girl sits by the riverside
Heavy her heart, her tears a tide
A shattered soul within, challenges her might
She budges a little, but chooses to fight
Hope is faint, no anchor to prod
Bruised and beaten, yet her dream is her god
An unknown strength nudges her spirit
A thorny path ahead, yet she cannot quit
Her past, she buries in a casket of gold
A few memories fond, the others she cannot hold
The river calm as it flows by
Seeks to embrace what her heart doesn't defy
She finds her voice in the song of the river
How the waves persist despite the wind's quiver
She sleeps in the elixir of joy for a while
As the river looks up and returns her smile...

Marya Layth (maryalayth) | 1 comments More than Bread by Marya Layth More than Bread

Hello all,

I am looking for reviews for my debut collection of poetry and prose, More than Bread. You can find excerpts from More than Bread on my Instagram. If any of my words speak to you, you can purchase More than Bread on Amazon by clicking the link below:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/0999180800


Book Description:

This book is for the dreamer and the realist. The skeptic and the believer. The seeker and the sought.

Marya Layth invites you to sit beneath the night sky with a girl who catches the attention of a star.

More than Bread boldly and whimsically explores the duality of human nature through an illustrated tale of poetry and prose.


Early Reviews:

"This book is going places, and I'm so happy I got to read it so soon, so I can sit back and watch it happen.

More than Bread is a soulful mixture of poetry and prose, inviting us to listen in on the conversation between a girl and the star that notices her staring at the sky nightly. Marya Layth tells this story with the sort of wise and gentle voice that made me think of a Peter S. Beagle-inspired folktale. And her poetry demonstrates a timeless eloquence and wisdom. Seriously. So many of these poems read like classic literature. I was in love. Buy it."
-Morgan Nikola-Wren, Author of Magic with Skin On and My Dearest Hurricane


"I have been following Marya for some time now on social media. Up until the release of this book, I had only seen excerpts from her longer pieces of work. I knew she was good but this book exceeded my expectations. Marya's words address the deeper meaning of what it is to be human. She highlights the cracks in our armor as well as our skewed priorities as a first world society but she never abandons hope. In fact this book clings to the idea that we CAN get to a more peaceful and childlike way of being. I loved how I found myself being challenged on some of my own views on topics such as selflessness and forgiveness. You will dig up all those things you buried away inside of yourself while reading this book. More than Bread makes the reader take a step back from the chaos of day to day life to ponder seldom thought about but very important ideals. There truly is something for everyone in this book."
-CJ Sanchez, Author of Beyond the Noise

Maeve Curran (maevecurran) | 5 comments Pains

Debut collection of poetry!

This collection of poetry revolves around types of pain, from the kind that makes you feel like you're going to burn up to the aching weeping pain that keeps you in bed. More importantly, it reflects on what living through pain can give you, and how pain can change you for the better.

I'm looking for honest reviews for my poetry chapbook (22 poems) 'At War With the Fireflies' for Amazon and/or Goodreads, and wherever else you like to post. The poems are a little dark, and often use a lot of insect metaphors.

If you're interested, please let me know! I can give you a digital copy in PDF, mobi, or ePub, whichever you prefer :)

Thank you!

Unspoken is the debut collection of poetry and prose by Ghanaian writer Abena Amoah. A raw and personal account of a journey of healing with writing as the balm. Exploring a variety of themes ranging from sexual trauma, self-discovery, femininity, and healing, the writer insists on visibility. Abena hopes to encourage the reader to honor the shadows of the past, face the self in the now and with their permission, heal.

If you're interested, please send me a message for further details.

Thank you in advance.
