Cover Blurb:

Of Swans and Stars is a collection of poems based around four themes; being hopeful, being hopeless, love, then myth and magic. They are at times angsty or raw, they are sometimes angry and dark, or even whimsical. There are probably too many poems about dragons and of course plenty of poems about love. This book is about my seeking my own direction in life with all the missteps, the pitfalls and the wrong turns that go hand in hand along the way.

Of Swans and Stars: Finding my own North Star, one poem at a time By Author E.M. McConnell – Book Review

Of Swans and Stars is the first book of poetry by Eyrn McConnell. It is separated into different sections, giving us a flavour of the different emotions of the writer at the time. I did enjoy the work, and could identify with several of the pieces. Poetry is a very personal reflection, and it is difficult to rate it as we do with a general book of fiction. Any lovers of poetry, I would recommend this book to. Anyone looking for a good book of poetry to start learning about the genre, I’d also recommend it. Well written, edited and formatted. I award 5 stars.
