"I would not call myself a poetry reader, but there is something about Nikki Giovanni's poetry that speaks to me so deeply. Sentimental and comforting,
Make Me Rain covers a wide range of topics, from quilts and rising bread to the social change we so desperately need in our world. Giovanni's wisdom and understanding once again prove why she is such a poetic powerhouse and leave the reader wanting to explore her past work again, too."
