Completely revised and expanded brand-new edition of Volume I, the first book in the Whiskey poetry trilogy Whiskey, Words, and a Shovel, Vol. 1, is about reclaiming your power on the path to a healthy relationship. It is a testament to choosing to love yourself, even if it means heartbreak. Originally released in 2015, this re-rerelease packs the same punch as the first version, but makes an even greater connection with the soul of the reader. Each piece has been re-seen and revamped to reflect the author's continuing journey with his partner, Samantha King, without whom this book would not exist. Samantha is the muse, the "she" the writer speaks of; she is every woman who has felt like she wasn't good enough, and every woman who struggles to find love.
I was really excited for this book of poems. I've read quite a few poetry books on similar topics, and after reading "Whisky Words and a Shovel", I can tell you that this book is average. The poems are fine, and there are one or two that stick out. However, the majority of content in here can be found in many other books of the same style. Sin also tends to use similar structures throughout their books, so some of their pieces can feel repetitive. I want to clarify that this is not a bad book, it just simply doesn't have a wow factor that puts it above others.
