Nina’s poems are good, I love them.
Sometimes they’re funny, sometimes they’re heartbreaking.
Her work is wide ranging, personal, observational. She performs it with passion and intensity. Also, she’s an actually good human being, which is neat.

These poems compassionately recognize the many and varied lives of all the people that pass us in our everyday life. In this case, through the supermarket checkout line.
Humorous, sensitive, deeply honest.
You’ll feel better having read them.

This magnificent volume of poetry is the author’s first published book but surely not her last.
With impeccable insight and a vivacious appreciating for the human condition, Robins takes us on a journey behind the supermarket check-out counter.
She offers us a unique glimpse into the lives of the ordinary people who cross her path each day, using her incredible poetic talents to convince us of the extraoardinary humanity of each of them, and by extension, of ourselves.
I highly recommend
this book!

Few Poets and Writers artists have connected with the depth that Nina Belén Robins has.
​
She made us see the everyday in a fresh way and took on edgy topics that had deep personal meaning for all.
There was much laughter and many touching moments.
She left the stage with students wanting more poetry and being inspired to write their own.

Nina is one of society’s underdogs, who can do extraordinary things with her words.
​
She is wickedly entertaining with the ability to make you laugh out loud and pull on your heart strings.
