I commend the author, Rachel Thompson, with taking this step into parts of her life and baring her soul in such an emotionally raw way...taking deeply life changing moments and putting it into words and feelings was extremely brave of her. From the moment I had the great fortune to be a beta reader to the moment I finished it, I couldn't put it down or tear myself away from the stories and poems that were so full of strong words, powerful emotion. Broken Pieces is a step away from Rachel's usual wit and snark, but it was no less real and powerful...in fact, more so. Each story gives you pause and you can't help but take a moment to reflect and absorb. You will not be disappointed if you read this.
