It was an enjoyable read with captivating words that had me immerged in the book. I enjoyed reading this, and if the title didn't amuse you enough, the inside of the book certainly will.

Tolu A. Akinyemi is a poet worth noting. These words are powerful, filled with literary life, and worth sharing. A beautiful collection.

While reading this book my interpretation was about verbal abuse. I keep thinking about how words can be used to bring others down and at first you may not realize because it's said in such a way. Coated in pretty words.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I really enjoyed reading this powerful poetry collection by Tolu' A. Akinyemi, I particularly loved the captivating title that encapsulates the meaning of the book.

One of my favorite poems was the one not marrying a writer if you have secrets because they will expose you. I could very much relate to that!

One lesson that I got from this book is that words, in whatever form, can be very hurtful, so it's important to ponderate what we want to say whether it's online or in real life.

I highly recommend this to lovers - and non-lovers - of poetry, since it's a collection that will leave a mark on every type of reader.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read an early copy.

This one here is a collection of poetry. Some of these poems were lyrical and fun, while others were thought provoking. Others though I didn’t really connect with. But I suppose that’s poetry for you. Overall, I enjoyed this poetry collection.
