This review is very enlightening. I love the part where she discovered herself after going through pain and heartbreak. I believe this is a process many people go through while growing.

This book has made me love poetry. When I sampled it, I only realized the sample is over yet I expected more. The review was like bridging the gap but I feel I need to read it myself. Thanks for the review, it’s great.

Love is always an excellent subject to write about, so it doesn't surprise me that the poems are very relatable.

Today's BOTD is a collection of poems that takes readers through the author's journey of self-discovery and growth. It's filled with themes surrounding the ups and downs of life, love, heartbreak, and acceptance. It also helps readers take a look at their own lives and discover what has contributed to the person they are today. Sounds like a beautiful and uplifting read. Thank you!! :-)

Although this sounds like an emotional and touching book, I am not a fan of poetry! I have always had problems recognizing the true meaning of poems. I am sure poetry lovers will find this one to their liking, but I will pass on it. Thanks for the nice review!

I really love how the author explained love shown in different ways. She turned over the love we all see and gave us the bitter side. Kudos. Congratulations on winning BOTD.

I like the metaphor used in this book, which is that a butterfly for the author's persona. I particularly like the focus on growth and self-realization, which are two concepts important to all young adults who are starting to get to know the world, themselves, and other people much better. Congratulations to the author for BOTD!

This is a unique collection of poems that highlights the poet's love, life, pain, heartbreak, and how she got back on her feet. The book is temporarily discounted on Amazon Kindle and has a well-written OnlineBookClub review. Congrats @prettyp1231 on the BOTD selection.

My usual preference is not poetry so I can't guarantee that I'll ever be picking up this no matter how wonderful the review says it is but thanks for the great review!

Books of poetry don't particularly interest me, so I'll pass on this one. However, I'd like to wish congratulations to author Chaisson on her accomplishment and earning BOTD honors.
