As a person that has not jumped into poetry, this sounds like a great place to start.

This poetic narration of poems about the beauty of the natural world and the reflection of nature's themes in poems sounds fabulous.

This sounds like a wonderful book for lovers of poetry. Sadly I'm not in that category, I read a few of her poems, and they're lovely, but poetry still isn't for me. Worthy of BOTD though.

There is nothing quite like the beauty of the natural world. I love how the author mentions that the poem feeds food to the audience as well to further tie in with the theme of the book.

Sampling Sharla Lee's Catnip I felt so refreshing. It creatively captures the beauty and wonderful experience that nature offers. I think reading the book will offer more food for thought after reading your well written review of the book. Congratulations on the BOTD!

This indeed sounds like a good book of poems and will be great for fans of poetry. I'm not much into poetry, so I'll pass.

I really dont usually enjoy poetry because of the hidden meanings and mysterious words used were all there. But in the Catnip of life it was a basic experience how would you enjoy your life. It so basic that you could immediately understand its message.There are no complications. Let us just be grateful to whoever, to anyone that makes your life enjoyble.

I enjoy reading profound poems, especially when it's about the appreciation for nature and life itself. The questions within this book serve as a way to brainstorm what the readers learned and thought about certain topics. Dreamers and visionaries will surely enjoy reading this book. Congratulations on the BOTD.

I'm not a fan of poetry and I was about to pass on reading this book before reading the review of this book. The review of the book is as inviting as the reviewer says the book is. The reviewer pointed out some aspect of the book that's capable of nudging someone to read this book. I'll give it a read. Congratulations on BOTD.

Post by Valeria Riveraa »

I never know how to read a poem so I end up not reading any at all. But I do have in mind that poetry is one of the greatest forms of literature which is capable of impacting in readers life with words on few lines. This book is not an exception because it is packed with a number of thoughts to ponder on. This is such an incredible book, congratulations on BOTD.
