This poem needs to be understood in the context of the recent pandemic, and the era of ‘social distancing’, to be fully appreciated: published in 2021, it is about a world in waiting – waiting for everything to be ‘open for business’ once more, waiting for pleasure to return, and waiting, even, for the word ‘lover’ to attain its old meaning again. ![]() See also the poet’s masterly use of enjambment or run-on lines to sweep us along the tide of the poem’s emotions. Here’s a fine example of how deftly an Ada Limón poem can move between the delicately lyrical and the down-to-earth and colloquial: contrast the first sentence of ‘Lover’ with the second to see what we mean. Asked by a reader to describe what suffering is, the poet instead finds joy in watching a female groundhog as she joyously feeds on the poet’s unripe tomatoes. In this 2020 poem, Limón shows that the label ‘nature poet’, whilst not the most accurate categorisation of her work, is not entirely inappropriate. ![]() ![]() But I was proud of her for trying survive on her own by reaching out to Kal and asking for help.

The Roman camp was so new and different to Camp Half-Blood, I really enjoyed learning about it, and who doesn’t love a bit of Roman mythology? I though Hazel and Frank’s backstories were really interesting, and the quests seemed even more exciting. I enjoyed this sequel more than the first. I could barely contain my excitement! I’d missed him so much! Jason, Piper and Leo were great, but Jason could never replace Percy, so it was lovely to have his charming perspective again.
