Unscrambled Eggs is an excellent book of profound writings. It's an absolute uplifting book of poems. I recommend this book to any reader.

Unscramble eggs is a lyrical album of heartfelt poetry, uniquely written and remarkably inspirational. Her works are unique and non-rhyming. I was drawn to reread it over and over again. All of her poems ardently touch home; it is difficult to determine a favorite.

I really enjoyed this alot. I felt I was transported into a world of great poems. They're very well written poems. These poems are filled with emotions and thoughts I can relate to. Indulge and buy this book. Two Thumbs up !

This book of 60 poems is a five-year diary that speaks to young women who have been hurt by people they trusted, but found untrustworthy. They were men, mostly, who left them with bills, and perhaps children. However, these poems show something other than self-pity, anger, and disappointment. They display a spirit of determination to survive and prosper somewhere else, with someone else--or alone. The voice of the poet sings that despite the hurts, she will unscramble those eggs and start over. She will be unscathed by the past, but will remember it as a lesson, and create a fine future.

Some of these poems use a subtle play of cultural dialect ripples of the language in a slight clash of words that commanded my attention. In each instance I thought, "Yes, that's true; I can see that from two directions." Some entries produced an imagery that caused me to re-read them several times:

From Suppose:
"What if...flowers grew wings in place of stems
imagine life as a chalkboard
where errors are erased
as unexpectedly as they are made"

I like this notion of past mistakes erased in a twinkling of an eye, unexpectedly. That is a
reprieve form Heaven itself. Perhaps flowers fly in heaven.

From If You Knew:
"...my bills have grown the size of Texas
the rent is overdue...
I'd mirrored the sun
but shouldered mountains
as my debt burdens seem more
like the dark shadow that lurks behind"

How many have been in debt--their own or one foisted on them by someone they trusted--and tried to smile for appearances' sake?
Armchair Interviews says: Recommended for ages middle school through adult. There is much good material for discussion in these sonnets and triple haikus.

Poet Nadia Brown gifts the reader with prose that flows like cosmic spiritual energy at times. In her wonderful and intelligent collection of verses called "Unscrambled Eggs", she captures emotions and inner observations with a unique wording that catches the reader's attention and more importantly, their understanding. She puts feelings that are universal in a word picture that all of us can fully see and understand.

Most poetry is written merely to reflect a poet's depression, anger or frustration with life but Ms. Brown uses her obvious talent to phrase and frame her heart and soul like an artist sharing a landscape on a canvas. This small book of poems is powerful and special and well written. The key with her poetry is that it does not come off as pretentious or superficial but goes right to the emotional heart of her themes. She does not waste excessive words. Readers will have an easy and an enjoyable experience with this book.

This is a must read book for poetry lovers. The American Author's Association gives this book it highest rating - FIVE STARS!
