The detail and structure of James’s sonnets shows the ‘blood sweat and tears’ that went into each and every sonnet, and, is truly an inspiration to anyone who loves poetry, especially the sonnet form.

Candice is a master of the sonnet form, but what inspires me more is her poetry itself. Her style, theme, rhythm, humour, is instantly enjoyable but multi-layered and each subsequent reading of a poem in this book reveals hidden meanings and treasures. She is without doubt one of the finest poets writing today and encourages new poets with her infectious charm, wit and enthusiasm. A great lady!
