Poetry like this is so important. There’s never enough ways to read about self-love and the journey to it. This collection does such a wonderful job at capturing the feelings that come with mental health struggles like anxiety and depression.
Honestly, it’s so hard to put into words how meaningful this was to read. Just seeing thoughts you’ve had during some of your darkest moments reflected back at you but with a hopeful undertone is just breathtaking. You hear so many times “it gets better” that you start to turn it out but when you read them in what feels like your own voice that is what’s truly comforting and why these verses are so powerful.
I highlighted so many lines that I’m definitely going to be getting a physical copy to reread during hard times.
Thanks to NetGalley and Central Avenue Publishing for sending me this arc!

This collection is so beautiful and inspirational. Everyone should write love poems to themselves.

Oh my god. From the start this poetry book had me hooked. The first poem itself struck me right in the heart. I was worried that it might go downhill from there, but it didn’t. In fact, it only got better. The poetry was beautiful and certain ones connected with me a lot, which I was not expecting because I had never heard of this author before, but I’m glad I know of her now because she truly is amazing. Without a doubt, it deserves 5 stars.
