An enjoyable collection of poems and relatable musings akin to journal entries, spanning the past ten years of Demro's life and personal experiences. The poems range in tone, some humorous, some sad, and others thought-provoking. My personal favorites from the book are Lost In Thought, Very Pleasant, WeFinallyMadeIt, Cooking Rice, Dream Rewind, Some Things Never Change, and The Forgotten, which had me chuckling to myself. This is the perfect read for sitting on a park bench while enjoying a beautiful day.

Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to read and review an eARC of this book.

4.5 stars rounded up.

Anywhere Imaginable by David Demro is a delightful poetry collection that experiments with both style and subject and explores both the whimsical, fun side of life and the profoundly sad. The images he is able to conjure are very vivid. I could hear the particular metal of the library catalogue drawer being pulled open as I was reading "Card Catalog", for example.

The subjects were varied, but the voice throughout was very clear and I would definitely read more from this author.

Thank you to Net Galley for making an early review copy of this poetry collection available in exchange for an honest review.

Short and simple read, which I always prefer for poem books. It felt more like a diary than a poetry book for me sadly.
