emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

I adore Amanda Lovelace and her poetry.  This edition is so pretty with floral illustrations in full colour depicting a sweet meadow and fiery roses.  Be your own power.

Amanda isn’t afraid to share her life through short and impactful words.

Poems about the dichotomy of woman, seen through the lens of Persephone, this book is visually and emotionally stunning. The art is gorgeous. The poems hit deep. Love her work, per usual.

Some of the poems were incredible. Some just felt like words thrown in a book. There were a lot that I knew if I saw them on Instagram, I'd press like and probably send one or two of them to a friend I thought would appreciate them. I'm glad I read it. It just didn't move me personally.
