Review of Artwords
Are you a poetry fan looking for a thought-provoking book that will both entertain and educate you? Artwords by Beatriz M. Robles is a unique poetry book that combines poetry and art. If you love poetry, art, or just entertaining books in general, this is definitely a must read for you!
The author combines art and words to create a unique and visually appealing book. What makes this book so unique is the author's skillful combination of literature, photography, and other forms of poetry, such as calligrams.
I liked several things about this book. First, as I mentioned, the book is visually appealing. Even before you begin reading this book, opening the first page intrigues you! Because the book has so many poems, there's something for everyone. I particularly liked how some poems, such as "Up and Down," reminded me of my very simple yet thoroughly enjoyable childhood. I also found some poems, such as "In Unison," that reminded me of our shared values and how important togetherness is.
While this is generally a well-written book, I often found it hard to read through some poems, primarily due to the fonts used. Sometimes, the fonts were too tiny, and other times, the words were too faded for me to see everything clearly. I had to strain to read some of the poems. I also found some poems too explicit, especially the romance poems. However, I think some people, especially fans of steamy romance books, will find this quality appealing.
In conclusion, I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars. I've deducted one star because the author's font and other format choices made it hard to read some poems. I highly recommend this book to fans of creative arts and thought-provoking poetry books. Although I found two grammatical errors while reading this book, it appears to have been adequately edited.
