3.5 stars. I really enjoyed the poems from the older collections in this book. Ive read Last Sext before a few years ago ans was hoping i would like it more now that im a little older. No dice. I think the poems from Last Sext are the by far the weakest in the collection and unfortunelty make up the largest part of the book. But the earlier poems play on sound and surprising word choice really well.
ARC given by NetGalley for Honest Review "Superdoom" was an incredibly enjoyable read. It drips with metaphor; it's the type of poetry that begs to be ingested slowly. It has religious (Catholic/Christian) undertones, but I find that it does not alienate readers who are not of those belief systems. Broder is not afraid to shy away from sensuality and how it mixes into the religious ideals she keeps. My top 3 poems are: "Your Mother Is Dying And I Want Details" "Bones" and "Today I Will Be A Benevolent Narrator"
