I Hope This Finds You Well: Poems

All the stars. Every single star.Thank you Kate Baer for another amazing collection of poems that make readers laugh one moment and cry the next. In awe of your ability to say so much about important topics in such a succinct way.This collection of erasure poems is brilliant, heartfelt, and entertaining to read. And an absolutely wonderful companion to Baer’s “What Kind of Woman”. *(A book bundle of both collections would be a fabulous gift for readers)I always mean to savor these poems but end up reading the whole book in one sitting. So glad to own both collections to revisit at any time.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. This is the second collection of poems I have read from Kate and it was enjoyable and satisfying experience.

This is my favorite of Baer's collections, though I do adore them all. The premise of I Hope This Finds You Well is so unique and interesting, and her poems remain as powerful and insightful as ever. Love it!

Kate Baer connects with so many people, and this book is fun, serious, and thoughtful. Enjoy!

I read this book over multiple sittings while pumping, not because I couldn’t finish it in one, but I wanted to draw it out and have something to look forward to.

Kate Baer has a different way of looking at words composed to do harm or impose opinions. I enjoyed the new messages generated in response and found myself trying to guess which words she would highlight. LOL.I would recommend it. Definitely entertaining.

I appreciate the different styling of this book, but did not find myself inspired as much as the last. In fact, it read more of a “gotcha” book than anything else. My favorite parts were those of positive messages then made into poems, but found the negative messages she has received kinda “eh.” I loved her first book of poetry, but this one just wasn’t it for me.

Even for non-poetry fans, these erasure poems are amazing. The concept of creating a poem in response to a blog comment is genius. Poetry friends and others enjoyed this book immensely.
