From the trigger warning all the way through to the last page, it is not humanly possible for me to be more impressed with this extraordinary author based on her meaningful poetry!

I don't read poetry very often, so I was eager to pick up this collection. The book is divided into four sections - Inception, Longing, Chaos, and Epiphany, and each contained dozens of short, bite-sized poems. The styling and formatting reminded me of Rupi Kaur's Milk and Honey, but unfortunately I didn't find it nearly as engaging or insightful.

Many of the poems felt repetitive, and a few were brimming with cliches. A handful of them are memorable, but the others definitely lacked a creative lyricism that would make a thought in a poem unique. Still, this is a quick book that can be easily read in a single sitting if you're looking for something a little different. However, I doubt I'll pick this one up again.

Sadly this collection was not for. Some really great ones but few and far between the ones that left me uncomfortable. They all flow for me so it's more the subject matter than the poems.

Certain Men for me was the best and really hit home with me having a controlling ex husband.
