There are parts to this poetry book that I found helpful in this time period of my life. I think the book could’ve been better. I think the author is just starting to fully understand life in its whole. Definitely worth the read to better understand you in your early 20’s (imo).

The author talks about normal depression and anxiety and what adulting is truly about and their life as a person of color and their perspective on how racism and bigotry truly effects them. It holds beautiful poems throughout but some that I personally didn’t get. Maybe I still need time to “understand life in its whole”.
