Summary: Not what I'd hoped for
Comment: I bought this book hoping for a wonderful, enlightening, lively poetic slam between various poets or at least a free-flowing verse extravaganza. What I got was bad teen angst poetry.

The book begins with the history of the poetry slam. (Which is an intense poetic competition) Well, most of the poets out there already know what a slam is, but this seemed quaint at the time. Then came the poems. Possibly written by groundsquirrels, most of the words come off as desperate attempts to make it rhyme, or (even worse) bad writing dressed up with big words.

The only poem with any meaning whatsoever is "She Bites Her Tongue" located in the middle of the book. The rest of this is just... ugh.
