This is a discussion topic for the November 2023 Book of the Month, Artwords by Beatriz M. Robles


What did you like least about this book?

The act of linking the words together with the art. Imaginary thought and creativity are put together for the visuals to be eye-catching

What I liked least was trying to read this book in digital form. This book would be better enjoyed in a hardcover format rather than digitally. Reading the text on my Kindle app was extremely difficult, as I had to enlarge each page to read the text. I recommend that anyone interested in this book sample a few pages first. Then, if you like what you see, order a hard copy.

What I disliked about the book was in the Kindle version, some of the words were cut off. Plus, certain styles of the poems were hard to follow.

I agree! The eBook version was very difficult to read, and I think the visuals might’ve looked better in a physical copy.

Something else I wasn’t a huge fan of is the formatting of some of the poems, like the refractive poetry, made them hard to read in general. It didn’t feel like it was intentionally puzzling, it was just sort of scattered which forced me to have to reread several of them to figure out the word order.
