I received About Time from a Goodreads giveaway. Expected publication date November 5, 2024

Neil Hilborn's About Time explores love, loss, and the complexities of relationships through personal experience and introspection. Hilborn delivers a collection that is deeply personal and relatable.

These poems have honesty and emotional depth. Hilborn reflects on moments of joy and heartache drawing the reader into his world with vivid imagery and compelling narratives. The way he captures fleeting moments of mundane experiences that shape our lives resonates, inviting readers to pause and reflect on their own experiences.

One of the standout elements of About Time is Hilborn's ability to balance humor with sorrow. His wit often lightens heavier themes, keeping you engaged while provoking thought.

Hilborn's skillful use of language and rhythm is impressive. His background in performance poetry is evident. Many poems feel like they were meant to be spoken aloud. You can feel the sincerity behind each word.

I'll never miss a Neil poetry book. Not my favorite of his but still so much good stuff in here. I smiled, I chuckled to myself, I got sad. It has it all.
