Even the Saints Audition by Rachel Jackson
3.0
I didn't love this poetry book. I loved the themes, the messages, and some of the poems. But I did not love this book.
Lines like "My Sunday school teacher thinks we've forgotten God is a murderer" and "I return to the Devil asking permission to torment. I can't overlook God saying yes" are lines that have stuck in my head for days.
Most of the poems at the beginning and the end are stunning. But the ones in the middle all mush together. If it wasn't for them, this would probably be a 4 star review.
Overall, it was an interesting poetry book but not one I'm going to read again.
