Book reviewed: Those unsaid words (Poetry)- - -
Title:
10/10
I liked the title. It's catchy. It's a title which if I saw on a book in real life, I'd probably spend my allowance over.
Cover:
9/10
All good but maybe make the cover a bit more relatable. A girl in a closed, empty room, and a pastel themed cover would look better.
Description:
9/10
It's a poetry book so I'd suggest adding a quote about "unsaid words". It'll give it a more of an aesthetic appeal.
Otherwise, the description looks fine.
But read the description over once. I wasn't sure what the signs at the top meant. Was it code language? Were you trying to make a design by adding random signs and letters? What was it?
So that's overall a very confusing part of the description.
Poem/chapter names:
8.5/10
I'm going to be straightforward and say that the names are a bit bland. When writing poetry, you need to make sure that the names are as poetic, if not more. They also need to be a little less revealing. For example, I wrote a poetry when I was going through a break up and I called it "Canvas left void" . It was pretty depressing but on the first glance you wouldn't be able to tell what the poem was about. You'll know it's about feeling dead, you'll know its about feeling lonely, you'll know it's probably 'you-need-a-therapist' depressing but you wouldn't know why the author was that depressed at that point.
Then there's the famous poem, "Fire and ice" by Robert Frost. It talks about the world either ending through over-obsession, through lust or other passionate human feelings or through the human ability of being cold-hearted, uncaring. But on the first glance at the title of the poetry, it doesn't seem like it's going to be talking about human nature. But it does and that's the surprise element of it.
Talking about Robert Frost, his title of "Fire and ice" itself uses a poetic device, namely Oxymoron. Which means using two opposite words in the same sentence very close by.
Like if I said "deafening silence", it would be oxymoron. Because if it's deafening then that means it's loud and probably your average street thug decibel noises but silence means well, silence. So they're opposites.
