I've been trying to read more poetry lately and the synopsis of this one intrigued me as I wondered how much of this book would be relatable to me and I would say that more than half of them were. It was painful to read but I think that for me it was the painful realisation that this is something that I relate to, rather than a bad kind of painful, I recommend this book to anyone who loves poetry or anyone who wants to get into reading more poetry. The writing was beautiful as well as the illustrations throughout.
I was sent this e-Arc on Netgalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.

"Apologies
I hand out "I'm sorry's"
Like "excuse me's"
As if I am
Constantly
In the Way"
You know where length really doesn't matter? In poems like these.
In poems like these, every single word hits a different place in your body and soul. With poems like these, you don't want it to end, you want to go deeper into the story and emotions.
But in the end you always whirl around, trying to patch up the missing links and bring the poem, dare I say, yourself, into the strongest embrace - but you can't. 🫂
With that being said, I simply want to thank the poems that touched my heart, that made me feel heard and understood. Three more lovely poems fresh from my camera roll:
"Only Sometimes
Sometimes,
I dream.
And sometimes,
I wish I could do it forever"
" Wasting space
Once my lids
Close like garage doors
I notice just how much
I relate to
The forgotten clutter"
"Resting Place
Your arms
Are the walls
To the safest home
I have ever known"
Okay, I will stop, even though I have so many more to share. Jasmine J., I will remember you and your f*cking beautiful words!
Thank you BookBuzz and NetGalley for my first ever ARC in exchange for an honest review! Life F*cks Me Everyday: A Poetry Book will be out on 01/26/2024.

Beautifully written 💙
What I love with poetry is that even though the verses are short, it still have a strong effect on me. May it be touching my soul or tapping into my emotions. It also helps me heal in ways that me feel heard or feel like I am not alone.
Somehow, I could feel the emotions of the author while writing all of it. Some of it really hits hard specially if it's close to what I've been through before or currently going through it.
Thank you, Netgalley and Bookbuzz for the eARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own and I am leaving this review voluntarily 💙

Thanks to NetGalley and Success Publication for the digital galley of this book.
This poetry collection delves deep into complexities of being human. Split into five chapters, it gives insight into our shared experiences. Themes include mental health struggles, trauma, love, grief, and loss.
I’ve been trying to get more into poetry for as long as I can remember, and every once in a while, I’ll pick up a few collections and just let the poems wash over me. I’m glad I picked this one up. It resonated with me, and I found a lot of myself in these poems. The title and cover hooked me, and while sometimes I don’t “get” poetry, I had no trouble with these poems and go really into the collection.
