This book was provided by the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing!
the witch doesn’t burn in this one is a poetry collection about feminism, being confident, rape and many more inspiring subjects.
the witch doesn’t burn in this one is the first poetry collection I read written by Amanda Lovelace and I cannot wait to read her first book, the princess saves herself in this one. Amanda Lovelace’s poetry is so beautiful and inspiring and I couldn’t stop reading!
My favourite poems from the collection are:
- the best kept
- secret.
- but i owe some things to myself, too.
- trouble trouble.
- survival.
- you are your own lighthouse.
- we tried to warn you.
- they wanted us weak but they forced us to be strong.
- my body rejects your desires.
- expectations vs. reality.
- everything is a distraction.
- how to prevent getting sexually assaulted.
- how to prevent sexually assaulting someone.
- what men dream about.
- she.
- things i will struggle to say & that’s okay.
- a witch knows mirrors do sometimes lie.
- we need you here & whole.
- your winter will come to an end.
- no one will be left in dark, dusty corners.
