"Anastasia's Mind Fog"
This reviewer really hit the nail on the head although their comments sound negative they provide the feeling that is exactly what the author intended. The author intended to provide her stories in a poetic form. Please read on!

Book Review of "Anastasia's Mind Fog"

Poetry reveals the nakedness of the soul. And that cannot be duplicated with an
attempt to candy coat a feeling, no matter the depth of the coating. Just
because one has emotional and physical shortcomings, does not constitute one to
be a poet.

I feel that poetry is a dirge of the human soul with beauty as its color. Poetry
is not a bland... More > look at life, described as a box of pasta you are about to buy.'

I am not trying to be contrite or ugly towards one's passion. But, this is a
very real world out there, and shallow memoirs of non sequential thoughts cannot
stand the test. And, I may stand alone. But when I read someone's work, it has
to go beyond themselves. It has to speak to me in the quiet places of my soul. I
look at writing as a very serious obligation, not a fly-by-night crackerjack
rhyme.

I believe this writer has a desire to put her thoughts to pen and paper. I also
believe she needs to take more time to explore those thoughts to properly put
them down on paper. I believe her work would reach and be monumental to those
close to her, like friends and family, but would fail to be a choice of reading
in any sort of unbridled local interest. It's personal, yet not unique.

She reminds me of Emily Dickinson, only if Emily would not have cared what her
words meant.

"Mind Fog" Anastasia, your poetry is truly from the heart. It is my opinion...that every author who writes from experience instead of imagination deserves to be applauded, the reason being that such an author desires more to share than to become famous. Mind Fog is a look into self: penned chock full of poetry. It may just be that prescription one needs to help ease the pain of reality.
Great job, Paul
