A to Z Challenge: Bookish Thoughts: P

Meghan O'Rourke

P Is for Poetry

This is easily my most represented genre on Goodreads.  It is the only genre I have had to divide into sub-genres.  I take notes when I read poetry.  Though my reviews don't always reflect that.  I have strong opinions: nature poetry usually sucks, poetry should NOT be translated, etc.  I can be a harsh critic.  Unlike other genres, I don't really have favorite poets or even favorite poetry books.  Though there are poets I go back to and there are books that have more poems I like than other books.
