How to Love the World is set of inspiring collection of poems from different authors

I was really hooked from the very start of the book. However most felt short and kind of felt inconsistent.

There are inspiring ones that I really liked and is really inspirational and empowering, however most just didn't appeal to me.

I really appreciate the effort, the words of wisdom, the words of encouragement and the positive vibes this books is radiating and sharing to the readers and hope they will continue on spreading the positive and the words of encouragment. And hopefully people would read this book.

Overall, it was a great read. I would definitely reread the ones I liked the most.

poems by a wide range of poets.
there were many great poems in this collection - that not only spoke to the themes of gratitude and hope but many that captured me the way a good poem can.

Some really lovely poems and a few awkward "reflection" pages throughout that didn't work for me. But I met some new poets I want to read more of: James Crews, Ellen Bass, Li-Young Lee, Jehanne Dubrow, Ted Kooser. The title of this collection doesn't lie.
