I liked this book but I docked it a star for not being quite as amazing as Broder's Twitter.

I’m so in love with this book. I was actually surprised how good it was. I loved the way of writing SO MUCH. It was somewhat cynical and selfish, but it didn’t stop me for falling for this book even more. I would highlight my favorite parts, then I gave up because all the lines that came after were just too fucking good. This was a good recovery from the last horrendous poetry book I read. THIS IS REAL POETRY AND IT DESERVES MORE RECOGNITION. A new favorite for 2018.

Poetry that always seemed to propel me onward through the book, I felt like I really wanted to read the whole thing in one sitting. Every poem seemed to be internal, focused on thoughts and inspirations of the subject (the author?). Lots of really good poems in here. Right up there among my favorite poetry books that I've read.
