The COVID-19 pandemic was and still is a difficult time. I admire how Lori Schneider used her poetry writing to brighten the darkness of the pandemic. Writing can provide great therapy for those going through adversity. I wish the sample would have provided a more significant glimpse of her work. The book review was nicely written.

Congratulations on BOTD. This book will be loved by readers who are avid poem lovers. The poems are set in a pandemic. A situation where the world was in a state of shock. Lori has tried to uplift the reader's moods with her beautiful poems.

The symbolism Lori uses here is beautiful. The pandemic changed the lives of nearly everyone, and the author's expression of these changes is relatable and realistic. Thanks for the great review!

A nice collection of poetry and art can be found in the book "A Brighter Tomorrow" by Lori Schneider, poems contemplate various themes of love, racial injustice, hope, courage, and animal advocacy. This is a good book to read.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

It's great that the author wrote this book of poems that touches on so many subjects such as the pandemic and social injustice. I'm not a big fan of poetry, so I'll pass on this one.

The author received my sympathy, because in difficult times a person can somehow convey hope and interest in life.

I've always been a great fan of poetry. I haven't read a lot of books with poems, so I'll be giving this one a chance. Great review, I liked how you started the review with a poem. Good catch.

I'm not greatly into poetry. However, the author's intentional rhyming style and lack of ambiguity may be enough to win me over. The themes of the poems are appealing and will resonate with many.

Unfortunately, no matter how uplifting this poetry collection is, I will have to pass this book, because with my current level of knowledge of the English language, I do not completely understand and easily get confused by rhymes and rhythms. Anyway, it does sound delightful in reviews, and so I wholeheartedly congratulate the author on BOTD!

The poems seem to be written from the heart, as the author's creative and therapeutic expression. Poems cover topics like the Covid pandemic, love and racism. Thank you for the great review.

I'm not a poetry fan, but this collection seems impressive. I like how the author presents an optimistic view of the pandemic topic, unlike others. Congratulations on BOTD!

Poetry is a universal language that was demonstrated in the brief interlude. It's most satisfying to read on current events within a world of many diverse and intellectual individuals.
