Is it full yet? is a poetry collection about what happens when noticing becomes a way of surviving.
Moving through family memory, friendship, romance, work, ritual, anxiety, and the relentless need to understand, Grace Hanlon writes from inside a mind that counts, checks, replays, questions, corrects, and keeps digging long after everyone else has moved on.
A childhood home is remembered through stair counts and cabinet doors. A stranger's perfume becomes a portal to another life. A voicemail becomes proof of love. A legal investigation spirals into a maze of addresses, mortgages, Instagram posts, and unanswered questions. Across the collection, ordinary details become evidence-of who stayed, who left, what changed, and whether certainty is ever actually possible.
Funny, obsessive, intimate, and sharply self-aware, Is it full yet? traces the distance between wanting to feel everything and wanting, desperately, to finally know what it all means.
