Review:
This collection of poems just wasn't for me. Here's the thing that I feel about poems, they either make you feel or they don't, and personally I think a good poem is something that makes me feel something, and I just felt nothing from this collection, like at all. Every poem just felt like a mass of words on page, and nothing else.

We're Back!

I was gone all last year. I was just really busy during the school year. College! I was retaking a Chem class, and I just had no spare time at all. Then over the summer, a dear friend of mine was staying with me before she left for Africa. And then the Holidays were busy, and it was just busy, and I missed being active on my blog, so here I am, finally back! And I'm jumping right into things! And I know Chelsea was also very busy throughout the last year, her reasons were more personal and were more valid reasons of disappearing. She won't be as active as I am at least not yet.

Thanks,
C.

I just have to say, I love both of these covers! I received both of these books for review from Vasily Pugh, the author of Basically Frightened, and Emma Tonner from Inkitt, who sent me Spectra. Thanks!
