Priscilla Bettis’s Review of “Lunar Gazing Haiku”

(Created on Canva by Dawn Pisturino.)

I’m thrilled to share Priscilla Bettis’s Amazon review of Lunar Gazing Haiku. Priscilla is a Christian author/poet who writes reviews (along with other authors) of Christian fiction at The Well Read Fish. Please visit their website to learn more about Christian fiction.

I discovered Priscilla through River Dixon’s Potter’s Grove Press (no longer extant) when she wrote the controversial novel, Dog Meat. I’ve followed her since on WordPress.

Thank you, Priscilla, for reading my book and writing such a lovely review!

Satisfying Collection

Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2024

“I enjoyed this collection of haiku and senryu. Each observation by Pisturino, each turn of phrase, each surprise twist made these short poems a pleasure to read. Some of my favorites:

“‘Primordial Rocks’ because it shows how scary a hot, desolate desert can be.

“‘Comets’ because Pisturino illustrates our smallness and vulnerability in the universe.

“‘Dogs’ because it shows Pisturino’s sense of humor.

“Whether readers enjoy nature poems, lighthearted poems, poems that touch on spirituality, or poems about humankind’s nature, everyone will find something to love about this collection.”

Lunar Gazing Haiku is available on Amazon Kindle for $0.99 USD.

The Kindle app can be downloaded for free at the Amazon Kindle Store, Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and the Samsung Galaxy Store.

Have a blessed day!
