September Love

Lang Leav just has one of the most beautiful writing styles and she also wrote one of my favorite poems ever and therefore I was really excited for her newest poetry collection. ‘September Love’ is just a love letter to poetry and you truly feel that her poetry comes from the heart and touches you as the reader. . The poems are emotional and slightly feminist and that is exactly how I like it. Emotions such as love, grief, forgiveness and heartbreak as well as experiences are addressed and they are also reflected on and I really liked that. Furthermore, some poems are also about poetry itself and how those affect a reader and also generally from a writer’s perspective. The poem September Love was originally published in Sea of Strangers and I’m so happy that this poetry collection arose from it and I really liked it. My favorite poems in this one were A Life Unlived, Locked Boxes, Crystal Ball, Among the Stars and Facade. . Overall, this is a wonderful poetry collection and I can definitely recommend it. 4,5 stars. (ARC kindly provided in exchange for an honest review.)
