Love Her Wild: Poetry

I will break up my review into sections for those who want to see what I think overall first. Then my opinions on other reviews saying the writing is “silly” or “juvenile”. Overall: Lovely book. Good quality hardback cover and thick pages. Make sure to remove paper cover on hardback in case it gets ripped. Great designs and photography inside as well. There is a beauty in the simplicity of his style of writing. Authentic and raw emotions. Can be read any place, any time. More poems contained inside then I initially realised. Would recommend to anyone. In depth: Cover and manufacturing quality: The book has a plain navy hardback cover- which is then covered with the paper cover you see in the image - aka. the cover image itself isn't printed on the actual "hardback cover". Only issue with this is that like any hardback book with a paper cover - the paper cover can be easily damaged or ripped. I personally remove the paper cover when I read the book so not to bend or rip it. However, I personally prefer the plain cover hardback with cover - I am just including this in case anyone thinks it's printed on the actual hardback. So just be sure to remove the paper part if you don't want it to get ripped or bent when reading. The paper inside the book is very thick and sturdy. Wouldn’t easily rip or be damaged. Good quality pages that are sewin well into the cover. Overall, the manufacturing quality of the book is extremely high. Photography and Design inside book: There is a lot of great photography inside as well and the designs and fonts in the book are lovely. To me, it's very clear that a lot of thought went into this book and the quality of the book holds true to this statement. The images inside the book are all in black and white and some of the poems are written over the images or on the page beside them. There many more poems contained in the book than I initially realised, and I was surprised at the thickness of the book when I received it. I read this most nights before bed and even when I re-read the same poems, I never fail to find something I didn't see the first time I read the poem. Style of writing and poems: I have noticed that some other reviews have tarnished this book as “juvenile” or “silly” and I must disagree. I think the thing about these reviews is that they were just unfamiliar with his work and perhaps expected something else when they ordered his book. On the other hand, I was familiar with his style of writing from following him on socials or reading snippets of the book online. I purely bought the book because Atticus has a beautiful style of writing, not for some sort of in depth and intricate poetry that had multiple meanings and hidden messages. His straightforward, simplistic style of writing may seem “juvenile” or “silly” to someone that opens the book and is expecting intricate and detailed meanings in every poem but what these people don’t realise is that the very beauty of his poems is this simplicity. I love how I can pick up this book at any time and just delve into a world where Atticus lays his love out in this raw and authentic way. He doesn’t need huge gestures or hidden meanings in his poems to show this. He says exactly what he feels, straightforward and unashamed. It’s a book that can be read at any time, any place and automatically show you how it feels to truly love someone in a realistic and genuine way - even in his shortest poems, this core message is so evidently portrayed. His sincere and simplistic style of writing is the main thing that should be appreciated about this book, not bashed upon, and called “juvenile”. I didn’t buy this book for a poetry analysis or for mind twisting meanings. I purchased it to read on a stormy night with soft music playing to help me relax – and it does so perfectly. Final: Great book for an easy read to relax before sleep. I am pleased with this item, would be a lovely gift for anyone as well.

Hands down one of my top favourite Modern Day Poets! You are so beautiful in the words you write. I've been following Atticus on Instagram for a while now, and when I heard he was releasing a book, I knew I had to pre-order and get my hands on it the day it was released, and so I did :) It's not your ordinary standard-font-and-size-and-words-only book of poem. Oh no. It's so much more! There's words typed and hand written and pictures and ah, only he would manage to make the book so lovely too! The hard cover, and top quality of pages, combined with the magic of the words make reading it such a lovely experience. You'll keep coming back to it. Gift yourself this book. Gift your partner this book. Gift this to anyone who appreciates the beauty in words, and they will forever cherish it! :)

Beautiful. The most beautifully written heartfelt stunning read ever. I shall buy it for all my friends. It made me cry. Atticus has the ability to understand and connect with humanity and make it epic in scale and gorgeousness.

I have been following Atticus on Instagram for a while, so I pre-ordered the book as soon as I could. Got it on 12th July, which also happened to be my birthday. A gift from me to myself. Loved every word, and letter, and tittle. In love, over again.

If you love inspiring quotes, you’ll love this! Not amongst the great poets but Atticus is modern and has a way of expressing thoughts which resonate and inspire. You can access his work for free on social media but I do enjoy picking up his book, thought has gone into the presentation. It’s a book I enjoy picking up to lift my mood.

Every generation deserves a poet. Who could inspires a generation. In this social media frenzy generation Atticus surely does that. With every word you read love seems so easy. With this generation loosing the essence of love and poetry. Atticus in this work is holding his fort strongly. His work will make you fall in love over again, just like the first time. Innocent, Sublime and truthful. Atticus shows this generation about how to love.

As someone who loves Atticus, I was obviously going to be in love with this book anyway, but it also gave me some photography inspiration too!

Love this book full of wonderful, loving short poems. Can't rate it high enough

Davvero un bel libro, da leggere quando si ha bisogno o da leggere tutto d'un fiato. Io seguivo già Atticus su Instagram, assolutamente consigliato!

My cousin loves this!!

Este libro es una obra de arte. Trae unas imágenes preciosas acompañando unos poemas que son exquisitos. Es un libro que me crea mucha nostalgia y me emociona en gran parte. La calidad de la encuadernación es muy buena, pasta blanda con pequeños relieves y esmaltados. Las hojas interiores tienen muy buena calidad. En conclusión, una gran compra!

"There is nothing prettier in the whole wide world than a girl in love with every breath she takes." A perfect blend of magic and words. Atticus has the ability to touch the soul through words. The book is divided into three parts. LOVE, HER and WILD. Each part just more beautiful than the previous one. "I hope to arrive at my death, late, in love and a little drunk." Every other page in this book is just quotable. The pictures in between and accompanying poetry, added a little extra magic to it. So, combined with photography, this book is visually beautiful! This book is definitely a collector's delight. Highly recommended. "One day I'll paint the perfect sunset, If I can only find the right words!"

My absolute favourite poetry book… Literally gives me goosebumps
