I can’t even say if I loved it or just thought it was average. There was definitely some great poetry, but other poems seem very basic (could be copy pasted from some basic quote website). Not to disrespect the author tho. Really liked that the book is split into 4 different chapters, in which the author concentrates on a certain topic. My personal favourite was 4th one (the healing), because the first three ones were more focused on love and (abusive) relationships, but the 4th one was very inspiring, since it was more focused on self-love, acceptance and femininity.
Very quick read that made me think.
