Welcome to Litsy!

People deciding to not show up is the reason I decide to go missing.

This was repetitive and a repeat of the first. I don‘t necessarily mind it but I think you have to need the message at the time to read this “break up poetry.”

Use the shovel to bury this one. I‘m joking of course! I know it‘s an unpopular opinion, but this book of poetry wasn‘t for me — I found many of these poems to be condescending, repetitive and full of platitudes. That said, there were a few in there that elevated this review from a pan to so-so. 🤷🏻‍♀️

5th book of 2019. Finished: 3/10/19

Loved this book. The encouragements throughout the piece were my favorite. I was pleasantly surprised at how much the author grew from the first book to the second. His writing evolved and poems were much stronger. This book serves as a reminder for women to love themselves first.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The second volume to r.h. Sin‘s “Whiskey Words & a Shovel” series still packs a mean punch. The poetry in this book includes topics such as love, depression and mental health, heartbreak, harmful or toxic relationships, and self-love. I give this book 4/5 stars because some of the themes and poems were very repetitive for my taste. Overall, this is a good read and I will be reading the third and final volume in this series.

Love this quote ❤️

I‘ve been reading more and more poetry lately. And I mostly enjoy finding the best and, of course, that means I have to read the most popular. The first one was good but not the kind of poetry I love. If anyone can recommend poetry with themes OTHER then love, please leave me a comment. (I gave the first volume 3.5/5) #poetry

Giving this book to a friend. Left her notes throughout. ✨

Wonderful poetry about love, loss, and self-love. Some of the poems may be short but they pack one hell of a punch.

R.H Sin writes beautiful poetry for our generation. He writes about love, the self image of women, heart break and healing. It's exactly the kind of book every women should read no matter where they are in life because you will be able to relate to his poetry on so many levels. 👏👏

Bonne nuit 😴

I'm loving that there is a revival of conversational poetry!

Picked up these two today can't wait to dig in

This poem is a good one 👍🏻 #currentlyreading #poetry

Overall I found this a pretty solid poetty collection, both a quick and enjoyable read. At first glance these poems might look short & simple but they pack a mighty punch.

This book was really insightful and left me with a different perspective of myself.

Love this Instagram poet.. But super simple. Don't expect rhyming couplets, or iambic pentameter, or stanzas of symbolic prose. This is how you felt in 9th grade after your first break up.

The Instagram poet is short and sweet. It's poems about love won and hidden pain and suffering. It's like me in high school all angsty, but super fun to read.
