Query: Bad poetry made it hard to take seriously

I really did not like the poems, and thought it might have been a different better book if this wasn't the case (and I actually like Victorian poetry, as I believe that's what the poems were modeling). It's hard to get involved in a book about a romance between two poets when you can't help thinking, is it me or is that poetry bad? I didn't get past page 69, as skimming through the rest of the book gave me a general idea of what I thought was in store, and I just wasn't interested. I give most books a chance but I thought this one was overrated.
