Official Review: A Sliver of a Chance by Brian Sankarsingh

[Josephe-Anne]

While I'm not a huge fan of poetry, I might enjoy seeing some illustrations in this book.
Thanks for the review.

This book contains more than poetry. There is also a lot of social commentary, so I hope you'll give it a try.

Thank you so much for leaving a comment.

Poetry is not really my thing. Your review is intriguing to make me give it a try.

The author seems to have tackled a myriad of topics without dropping the ball. I find it lovely that you were able to relate to a few of them. The issue of colorism and racism amongst colored people is a conversation that I feel shouldn't be left behind even as we move to an equitable world. Thank you for this detailed review!

Although poetry isn't my go-to genre, this book certainly seems to share the author's thoughts and feelings well. Thanks for an awesome review!

I haven't read many poetry books but this does sound pretty good. I very much like the book cover. I like how poetry can be interpreted in different ways. Glad you enjoyed the book, it was a marvelous review.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comments. I appreciate your kind words.

It seems like an interesting book mixing poetry and history. This particular mix makes it really engaging. Thanks for the insight!

Yes, the author used his experiences, observations, and lessons from history as sources of inspiration.

Thank you so much for commenting.

It sounds like this is an engaging collection of poems on an important social topic. I agree with you on how people discriminate against others not only on the basis of colour (whites versus blacks/browns) but also over other differences.
And thanks for including a brief explanation of 'acrostic'. I learned something new today because of your review.
Thanks for this wonderful review
