My Thoughts:

This is my second collection of poems by Amanda Lovelace. The first was Flower Crowns & Fearsome Things, which I think was very good. Break Your Glass Slippers is part of the collection You Are Your Own Fairytale. I listened to all three audiobooks. You can listen to these audiobooks in any order you choose. Or even listen to just one and you will be able to enjoy it without the feeling you are missing something. Make sure you listen to trigger warnings at the beginning of this audiobook.

Break Your Glass Slippers is a collection of mostly short poems inspired by the Cinderella fairytale. I liked the music at the beginning and the end. I liked the poetry and the general idea. But all sounded a bit too much like a self-help book than poetry. The first part of the collection I liked more than the second.

Amanda Lovelace is also the narrator of her poetry book and I liked that. She did an excellent job, as always.
