Thank you to the author for sending me the e-book of The Art of Sidewalking in exchange for an honest review. 

The Art of Sidewalking is a collection of poems that talk about our daily life, scattered all over the pages in the shape of a quick and short reading that makes you want to read more. 

I really found the writing of the author so beautifully written! There are a few poems that I, personally, absolutely loved. 

The book is divided into ten chapters called: Living Room, Kitchen, Neighbor, Bedroom, Street, Sidewalk, Park, Baja, Big Sky, and In my Head. Every chapter has an illustration in the first page, illustrating the chapter and its poems. The way the author interlaces all the chapters and the free poems that live within every chapter's pages is delightful and brilliant. 

What caught more my attention of this book was that it talked about our daily life, because I haven't read or heard about any other book that expresses and puts into paper this kind of daily things or actions: microwaves, windows, leaves and trees, and branches, wake-ups, stairs, buses, coats, dinner dates, buildings, city, clouds, 

I really admire how the author writes some specific poems: how the elements he uses blurs into one, and creates such a lovely, admired scenario and makes you feel greatly aware of everything around you. 

It's a quick-read destined for adults. What makes this book so different from others is that the author pays more attention to mundanities. 

I think everyone that likes or loves poetry will definitely like this book.

I hope you had a wonderful weekend, and... we read each other in the next post! ♡ (which, I guess, it'd be this next week we're going to start!)
