What can I say? Robert M. Drake knows my soul.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ (2.5/5)

I really wanted to like this book, but I unfortunately found that I couldn‘t. I really didn‘t connect with the poetry, and almost gave up on this book a couple times. There were only a couple stand-out poems in my opinion, and the random pictures of girls that are illustrated every few pages didn‘t really relate to the poetry at all and was a bit weird.

Second best poetry collection I‘ve read first being Planting Gardens in Graves by R.h sin!!! Not sure why only 25% of people recommend this book it is amazing

Another signed book from Thriftbooks! Black Butterfly by R.M. Drake

This was... okay. Some phrasing and whole poems I really liked, but most of it was just fine. A student lent me this, and I think most of my issue with it is simply because I am not the target audience. But nevertheless much of it just fell flat for me. I love that she loved it... but that is about it. I do love the way it is put together. Visually it is rather effective for its audience or message.
