Review.

This book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Melissa Jennings!

Pomegranate Seeds is a short poetry collection of 6 poems about being polyamorous and about having a ‘thing’ for someone for many years.

it always starts with a wanting

Pomegranate Seeds is the second poetry collection I’ve read by Melissa Jennings and I really liked it. The writing is beautiful and I loved the way Melissa expressed their feelings. I could relate to having a ‘thing’ for someone for a long time and I could really tell that these poems were really personal. 

I hope you find the heart you’re looking for

Even though Pomegranate Seeds is a short collection, I still thought it was beautiful and I really liked it. I cannot wait to read more poetry collections by Melissa Jennings!
