"KWAME ALEXANDER writes poems of commitment, poems that celebrate the passion and the messiness of human connections...in language that is muscular and gutsy." —Kim Roberts, Editor, Beltway Poetry Journal

"Many of the poems in CRUSH lend themselves to pairing with the classics. In "He Says He Loves Me," the speaker responds to her paramour's advances (think Marvel's finessing in "To His Coy Mistress"). When he tells her he has "protection," she asks "does he have enough of it/To guard my heart/To give shelter to my soul/in case of emergency." This well-crafted anthology will capture the interest of teens." —School Library Journal Starred Review
