"If you want your breath to catch and your heart to stop, turn to Kate Baer." - Joanna Goddard, Cup of Jo
"Baer is a different kind of Instagram poet, not only in that her poems convey a depth of emotion more cutting than the spare, self-help word-art characteristic of so many social media-propelled poet phenomena. But she also distinguishes herself by acknowledging the self-seriousness of the genre (particularly among those who are their own greatest promoters) and gently poking a hole in it." - Vogue
"Author and poet Kate Baer rose to stardom with her beautiful and insightful number-one New York Times best-selling 2020 poetry collection, What Kind of Woman, but it is the very concept of her latest book of poems that makes I Hope This Finds You Well just straight-up brilliant. A collection of "erasure poems," the book sees Baer sifting through the thousands of messages she receives online via direct messages, social-media replies, and emails to then turn them into pointed rebuttals, biting retorts, and clever reconsiderations. Like turning straw into gold, Baer tosses her inbox on the spinning wheel and weaves a collection of poems that will speak to anyone who has spent even a few moments on social media. Instant "like." - Shondaland
