Welcome to Litsy!

#bookmail I took advantage of the sale Amazon had last week to grab a few items. I definitely need to renew my resolution to buy fewer books, though. I've promised my husband not to purchase any during the month of March. I'm still expecting a few that I ordered in February to arrive in March, though, so hopefully I won't have too severe withdrawal symptoms.

this is a bit of a strange poetry collection but overall I really enjoyed it & am glad I pick it up

A Pillow Book, Suzanne Buffam‘s 2016 book of poetry, is a great companion for anyone struggling with sleep. During the darkest hours of night and through the early hours of morning, at dusk or dawn, the poems in A Pillow Book possesses the hypnotizing ability to lull readers into a restful trance.

This book, written by my friend and Serious Poet (she's won so many prestigious literary prizes I'm not even going to try to list them here) Suzanne Buffam, made me think poetry has been missing in my life. I read it every night before falling asleep (it is a pillow book, after all). Suzanne's sly humour and intriguing lists followed me into my dreams. I could completely relate to the surrealism of trying to combine a writing life and motherhood.
