Brick: A Literary Journal, 99 (Summer 2017) Reviews
-
I've never before read a journal with such a mix of pieces, styles, and musings. The editors truly try to put a lot of different voices & works together. I do think there is a certain, overall style here: a looking in that looks out while retaining a very personal feel. It a writer's journal.

This really wasn't very good at all, but it wasn't terrible: just uninteresting, unmotivational, overall left me feeling sort of stale. The art was gorgeous and the design was well done, I just did not want to keep reading after I got about halfway. Glad it was thin.
