Although I'm sure that the knowledge imparted in this book would be motivational. The poetic method in which it is conveyed might not be able appease me since I'm not a fan of poetry. But thanks for such a detailed review.

What a unique way to tell a story by the use of poetry. I am not a big fan of poetry but from what I have read so far it sounds easy to understand and as the reviewer rightfully said you could relate to the stories. The review was well done. Congrats on BOTD!

"Penelope's Purple Pashion" is a collection of poems that depict the poet's love, heartbreak and how she regained her feet. The poetry is excellent, readers can visualize the poem and the poems are entertaining. The book begins with the poet falling in love and soon learns that love is not a bed of roses. Her life goes on and she ventured on a journey of growth and self-discovery. This experience changed her life and she sees life from a much different perspective. She also realizes that the pain and heartbreak helped her learn so muh about herself. Great writing and a very good review.

I'm not a fan of poems but this piques my interest. The poems seem to be connected to form a story; how Chaisson got over her heartbreak. I look forward to reading this beautiful piece. Great review.

Chaisson's life lesson can be very helpful. Since love is one of those things which can hurt very deeply if not handled properly. Having Chasisson life lessons will help in this aspect. The official review is also very insightful. The way Jose was able to connect with Chaisson on an emotional level, shows that this book is worth reading.

I write poems, but I never published any of my works. Poets like Penelope give me the courage to one day put my work out there. I cannot wait to read this book and follow Penelope's journey as a person through words. Congrats to the author on having the BOTD.

I enjoy poetry every once in a while, and this book seems like a great read. I do think the title and cover do not so the inside poetry justice.

The title of the book is so poetic, Penelope's Purple Passions: Emergence of the Butterfly. It gives a vibrant image of its own and coupled with the brilliance of the artwork it is breathtaking. Your description of the poems and their message about changing and progressing is perfectly represented on the cover as well. Thank you for your great review!

This is an interesting life of a poet. Its amazing she could narrate how her life went sour and how she managed to come out of it. This will give other poets some enocuragement that its normal to go through sour moment. Great review and congrats on making the book of the day.
