In the first installment, to make monsters out of girls, lovelace explored the memory of being in a toxic romantic relationship. In to drink coffee with a ghost, lovelace unravels the memory of the complicated relationship she had with her now-deceased mother.
Review:
I read this book for the first time in 2020/2021. I loved and gave it five stars then, and I gave it five stars this time. I saw it on my shelf and just had the urge to pick it up again, so I did. I had post-it tabs in it from the last time I read it, and I used a different color to mark poems in it this time. It was interesting to see which poems I marked this time; which ones were the same and which ones were different. I'm glad I re-read this and I will keep this one for a long time. I am a big fan of Amanda Lovelace. Her poetry is very simple but effective. I love all types of poetry, and I think Amanda Lovelace could be a good entry point if you are intimidated by poetry.
