A beautiful poetry book where the emotions and struggle comes out clearly on every page. The line drawings add to the book but still keep the focus on the words. Some of these are just so powerful I think I'll use them in collage art journals. These books must take so much strength from the author to write and publish.

This book shows a lot of emotion and conveys the “traumatic girlhood” identity well. I feel I would have enjoyed it more if I could relate to the relationship that was expressed in this book. Overall great read and would recommend to anyone who is going through a breakup!

Most poems are surface level, unoriginal, 3-5 lines to describe one feeling or thought with no subtlety. However, I do give an extra star for the handful of poems that are sufficiently well crafted and intentional. In these, she makes use of literary devices nicely and does invoke a strong response from the reader. I connected with the subject material and blew through it in one short sitting, so it felt worthwhile albeit not life changing.

I should have 100% read the triggers before reading this. I’m super glad I listened to the audiobook read by the author because then I could get the cadence of the poems. It’ll be a while before I try poetry again but this was great.
