Average Rating: 
Rating:  - IMPORTANT CULTURAL POETRY
I thought this was an amazing first book of poetry! Carbo covers cultural issues with humor and grace. His detail to Filipino and American pop culture is astounding as his Spanglish phrases and tagalog references. I strongly recommend this book.
Rating:  - somnolent lyrics
I had to buy this book for class and I didn't like the poems in it. Put me to sleep.
Rating: - WITTY, UNFLINCHING, ACCOMPLISHED
Very few poets have the voice of confidence and authority Nick Carbo displays in his first book. He uses images of his native homeland that are both beautiful and disturbing, and yet he tempers every poem with a wry sense of humor that makes every insight sharper. We can't look away.
Rating:  - Humor
Carbo's work bubbles with a warm summer humor.
Rating: - Compelling! Dazzling debut!
I did not know POETRY could be so riveting and heart warming at the same time. I love Mr. Carbo's poems. Can't wait for his next book
