(2021) This is a collection of true-crime poetry: each poem is based on a different actual case of a missing or murdered woman or girl. I have very mixed feelings about this: for me it often felt simplistic and monothematic. But then I don't read much poetry and even less true crime, so I'm probably missing nuances. I do admire author Pelayo's talent for imagery, though, so if the description sounds like your thing, do check it out.

vivastory I've heard Pelayo read a couple of poems & wasn't terribly impressed, but I'm curious about

swynn I think I'll stack that one too: I think the premise & form of this one just didn't work for me. I'd definitely try her fiction 2y

“This grief, this loss, for those who are missing, is agonizing because for many there will never be answers, just a lifetime of desperate questions.”

I wasn't sure what to think about a book of True Crime poetry, but these short poems packed a mighty punch. Ms. Pelayo is a wonderful poet, and each poem gave you an understanding of the victims and the crime in a way that was wholly unique to the True Crime genre. (Cont. ⬇️)

CoffeeK8 The poems were completely focused on the victim in a way that made each poem personal, yet provided very few details leaving the reader to fill in the blanks. It made it a much more intimate and personal experience. 3y
