Elizabeth Lund, critic for the Washington Post, has named Good Bones one of the five Best Poetry Collections of 2017, along with books by Layli Long Soldier, Danez Smith, Mary Oliver, and 2017 National Book Award winner Frank Bidart:
“No matter the style or subject, the writing remains honest, compassionate and graceful, and the speaker maintains her determination to ‘love the world like a mother.’”
