I am not a huge fan of dark/confessional poetry but I thought I would give this collection a try. I could not completely get into the theme/darkness of the poems but that is mainly because it's not a big interest of mine. That being said I found the bold language and imagery in the poems very interesting and this was the main thing that kept me reading. Overall, I liked the attitude of the poems. ( )

A huge fan of anything dark and out of the ordinary, I quickly fell in love with this collection of poems. It is very easy to get through, but some of the poems beckoned to me after reading them for the first time and I felt the need to go back and really ponder over them. I love the author's dark humor, and found myself chuckling at a few simply because of how dark the humor really was. Can't wait to read more! ( )

I enjoy poetry of all flavors, usually. I gave this collection several reads but just could not feel strongly about the majority of the writings in a positive light.
