I bought this book with very little knowledge about its contents and topic. I ended up reading "Bluets" in one sitting. I loved it. It is a book I will refer back to again and again. Nelson weaves the numbered poems beautifully together. (What at first feels like a disjointed series of poems finds a natural flow.) Nelson balances between calculated non-fiction and raw personal anecdotes in the same poem. Nelson is a genius. A GENIUS. If you are feeling heartbroken- read "Bluets". If you are feeling lonely- read "Bluets". The book won't give you advice on how to deal with pain, but it will make you feel less alone.

It is difficult to pick one word and build an entire essay out of it, even more difficult to turn that essay into a book. Maggie Nelson does not only make the reader see the world "blue" in an entirely different light, but she also analyzes her relationships, personal struggles, and overall life in terms of the color blue. Although Nelson's story can be depressing, her lyrical use of language makes the reader want to keep trekking through her struggles. For aspiring writers, Bluets is a great read because of Nelson's use of small vignettes, as well as her poetic language. Bluets is a great template to use to think about your own writing through a different lens, or one focus. I recommend it to those who have gone through deep emotional struggle(s), aspiring creative writers, or poetry-readers.

Love, longing, joy, sadness, questioning, celebration, observation, acceptance, desire. All rinsed in blue. A mountain of fleeting bits of blue, discards, found, considered. A small book to be read in a single sitting. A small book to be picked at and pondered, under a blue sky, bit by bit, along the banks of a never-the-same river. Blue water or perhaps blue green or blue gray. A fleck of lapis, skin dyed indigo. Bluets creased and bent in the back pocket of my jeans.

This extraordinary book is one of those gems, a raw and vivid piece of Lapis lazuli, that I’m inclined to say very little about so as to leave it all for you to discover. Told in numbered fragments, this biblio-bijou is many things. It’s a memoir, philosophical and emotional meditation, and a scientific study of Nelson’s lifelong love affair and obsession with the color blue, all of which are interwoven with her efforts to navigate intense heartbreak, ongoing longing and existential isolation, and the life-altering injury of a dear friend. This makes it the book sound like a very heavy read, and indeed it had me in tears throughout, but its format keeps it from ever feeling punishing. Perhaps it’s also part of the enigmatic magic of the color blue.

I love this book. It is nonfiction, and comprises a series of small, numbered writings. They're more similar to Nietzsche's aphorisms in size--that is, they can be a sentence or two, or fill a few pages--but they are affirming, profound, and provocative. What are they about? Ostensibly, the colour blue. The entire book comprises reflections on the colour blue--its symbolism, its place in the spectrum of light, its manifestations as moods and states of being, its place in literature and music.The writing is brilliant. Maggie Nelson, whose most recent book, THE ARGONAUTS, is a tour de force, has such a fantastic style. Her writing evoked feelings in me as her writing placed a series of sensory experiences in my mind, each of which was evoked by what she was writing about.This is a work of philosopy, of aesthetic theory, of cultural criticism, a meditation on what it means to be alive and human, all creatively told by writing about the colour blue. At first glance, it may sound like another form of navel gazing, but that would be a misreading of what's going on. This is a book about the human condition, one that Nelson writes about with style and aplomb.

This is simply outstanding prose poetry, full of mystery and association that builds and revolves around this central color right to the last section. There is so much here that's rich and lovely. The language is truly compelling.

Most amazing nonfiction read I've had in a very long time. Interweaves a love for blue, a lost love, and a terrible disabling car accident of a friend. All in 200 plus numbered paragraphs. I carry this book around with me. Open it up just to read a random paragraph. It's a book you could (and I will) read over and over again.

One of my favorite collections of prose. Little lush vignettes make up this collection that all refer to the color blue or a state of “blue-ness.” Worth the read. You’ll come back to it again and again.
