Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Soft Thorns Vol. II is a continuation of the deep and emotional journey author Bridgett Devoue started with her debut poetry collection Soft Thorns. Similar to her first book, Devoue’s lyrical and comforting writing is perfectly complemented by gorgeous illustrations. Focusing on themes of online bullying, abusive relationships, and unrequited love, Devoue’s topics resonate. As she explores and elaborates on these issues over eight chapters of poems, the reader will discover all the knowledge and power to be gained from facing hardships head on. Soft Thorns Vol. II is for those who are struggling to reckon with their past, apprehensive of what is to come, and a little nervous about everything in between.
Thank You SO Much to NetGalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for sending an eARC of this book in exchange for an honest reveiw!
Whilst poetry isn't my lingo much, this was pretty good and interesting enough to keep me into reading. I enjoy the light sketches between pages, that keeps the book more entertaining for those who'd prefer to see photos or images. It's an amazing collection of short poems. I haven't read the first volume before, though, so it took me a while to get familiar with Bridgett's writing style. But after that, it was easy to comprehend.
