I'm participating in a poetry reading challenge where we are supposed to read a book of poetry each day for the entire month of August. I'm already a day behind so I'm playing catch up here. I'm posting for August 1st and 2nd here. August 1 Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur My rating: 4 of 5 stars A simple book of very powerful poems. I'm very inspired by this author to continue my own journey as a poet. View all my reviews August 2 An American Sunrise by Joy Harjo Joy Harjo was the 2019 US Poet Laureate. The book is a window into Native American culture as well as an examination into the needs, relationships, and social issues that exist in this first American community and about how far we still have to go in righting the wrongs of long ago. Bravo to Ms. Harjo. View all my reviews
