Poems always have this way of creating this feeling of a different reality. When I first had to read a poem, I realized that hating poems for so long had been a big mistake. That poem changed a lot about me and changed the way I see things. It communicates one's emotions in an appealing and amazing format. It expresses a feeling that one can't express. Poems hit differently. This book is another eye-catching poem and also has a live drawing that appeals to the emotions of the readers.

Blown out of Orbit by Kristin Keskey is an amazing collection of poems. It is a 107-page book. There are a lot of amazing poems that paint a different picture of humans' perceptions of things. The poem that caught me so much was captured. It was very easy for me to understand this one because I have been in such a situation. A true friend is known in a time of trial. We seem to have a lot of friends, but when the time calls for a friend to act, we look around and see that we are all alone. This part got me so emotional. This is an amazing poem, and lots more have been written by the author. Grab a copy to read more.

I just realized how powerful words can be. Words can communicate what the mouth can't. This poem left me speechless. The way the author was able to style her words to create such a beautiful rhyme was something I couldn't imagine. There was no point in pausing while reading; I was so into the book that I couldn't take a break. The figures of speech were also something I so much enjoyed. This book requires a reasonable level of concentration to grasp the author's message, which is the basic idea of this book. I love the diagram; it was so real and made the book setting look so different. I enjoyed how the author kept her writing simple from start to finish.

I had a few reservations concerning how tiny the words were, but there was still enough space that could accommodate larger writings. I also did not enjoy how there was an overuse of space in this book. Finally, the poems weren't numbered, and thus it was difficult to locate a particular poem of interest. These were the only shortcomings of this book.

Due to the dislike, I will deduct one star and rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. In addition, this book was error-free and well-edited. Except for the dislike, this book deserves a full rating. I strongly recommend this book to lovers of poems and drawings.

There are poems you read and they have a soothing effect on you because they reflect your reality. Seems like the author did a great job in putting together well-thought poems. I enjoyed reading your review.

One of the school of thought I've always been an ardent subscriber to, is the notion that poems leave a soothing feel on the human mind. Nonetheless, I'm not a huge fan of poems, I prefer someone reading it to me, not the other way round.

I'm not a fan of poem because at times it proves difficult the depict it's true meaning. I believe the author did a good job in the book owing to your review. Nice review.

I agree with you, true friends are hard to come by, friends that will turn up for you when things get tough are rare, and when we have those, we need to hold them close. Great review.

I'm not really a fan of poems myself because of the literary device usage. However, the title of this poem and the presence of illustrations makes me reason otherwise. Interesting review.

I'm not a fan of poems. This is probably because I find it difficult to get one that captures my interest. But this sounds exceptional. I'd especially like to read the poem, Captured. Great review.

This poem contain emotion along side with analysis
A good poem can use image and and nature and also ambiguous words that has no meaning just to express it's feelings.
