There was a star overhead, a donkey in the stall to my right. A lot of bling. A lot of angst. HEADY perfume.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommended!, January 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Believe It or Not (Paperback)
I thoroughly enjoyed this collection of poetry. The rhythmic flow, and vivid metaphors compliment the poet's keen insights and observations on the idiosynchrosies of our inner and outer lives. "Believe it or Not" is an apt title for this intelligent, witty (yet serious), collection of poems. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Original, Witty & Worth Every Moment, April 27, 2006
This review is from: Believe It or Not (Paperback)
I saw Jean read at a poetry conference recently, and immediately fell in love with her work. I bought this book, read it cover to cover, and enjoyed every single piece. The title poem was so good that I had to share it with both my kids and my wife. Usually they don't go for that sort of thing, but in my house everyone agreed this is the way poetry should be: Fun, layered, deep and interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Converting me to poetry, April 25, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Believe It or Not (Paperback)
Until picking up Jean's book, I hadn't remembered liking poetry. Her whimsical, lyrical honesty captures refreshing new ideas. Like the very best short stories should, she is free to play with absurdities, and her poems do so with grace.
