Someone Somewhere Maybe: Poems by Sophie Diener

4/5

Solid first book of poetry released by Sophie Diener. Full of poems of love, heartbreak, self-love, mental health, this poetry is the perfect companion to a rainy day or a moment when you don’t want to feel quite so alone in the world.

I do have to say that I’m not the biggest fan of heartbreak/love poems, but that’s only because I can’t relate to them. I feel like Diener’s love forward poems were really personal and I’m glad she got to add them to her book, but they just weren’t doing it for me personally.

The second half with the self-love and reflection though? Looooooved. I did actually cry to one particular poem. Diener’s writing is very earnest and straightforward and uplifting. Her latter poems made me feel at home and content.

I would definitely pick up another collection of Sophie Diener’s poems which I hope she gets to release one day.
