Unfortunately, I’m not the audience for this collection; something about the style just doesn’t work for me as well as it likely will for others.

Powerful, insightful, and moving. Billy Chapata speaks to my soul through his art. Filled with messages of self-empowerment and self-actualization. Accompanied with upbeat rhythms and melodies that serve as a melodic metronome that harmonizes with the poet's messages of self-affirmation. Chapters are named after some of the moons for our solar system (Enceladus of Saturn focusing on maturitya and responsibility, Deismos of Mars focusing on desires and passions, and Amalthea of Jupiter focusing on self-improvement and self-love) and a single flower of the verbena family that stands for rigor (connecting back to the repeated message of self-love and staying resolute to stand up for oneself). I found listening to this album on my morning and evening walks therapeutic and enlightening as so many quotes resonated with my core and the subtle symbolism is the delicate brushstroke this poet practices. Thank you to the poet for sharing his messages and spreading love and positive energy. I look forward to hearing more of your art.

Wow! I’m not really into poetry but this author is amazing. I throughly enjoyed this book. I highly recommend this book to anyone especially ones who could be struggling with life.

“My love can be messy.”

I’m so glad I stumbled upon this author’s poetry books! They are short and sweet reads with a very inspirational message flowing throughout. I will definitely be buying some physical copies for gifts and my personal collection. I also loved how he narrates all his books, as I believe no one can read the material quite like it’s own author!

This book of poetry was so beautiful and thought provoking. It was so uplifting. I have been enjoying poetry lately and am glad I came across this author. Thank you to Netgalley and Andrew McMeel Publishing for this audio arc in exchange for my honest review.
