I enjoyed the poetry. I'm wondering where the author gets all this interesting, meaning full words to use. Great work, thank you for the review.

Only poetry is capable to give words such a turn that one's soul rises above the clouds or break into tiny pieces. Mine can relate with "Tears of My Ancestors" considering that all my grandparents took part in WWII and were witness the destruction unleashed by nazi racist philosophy. The author deserves utmost admiration and respect!

'Official Review: Now I See' by Sandra Leon Gonzalez has a thought-provoking introduction. It outlines the contents of the book in a skillful way for avid readers. The point that the poems speak about freeing oneself from the bondage of the past, the effect of COVID-19 on our lifestyles, love, and spirituality is worth mentioning in the review. Also, the point that the author uses poems as a tool to encourage positive qualities and discourage negative ones is worth mentioning in the review. It was great to learn that the poems are relevant to current life situations!

It's been a while since I've engaged with poetry. The poems in this book sounds like some I would enjoy. I loved that quote about the forest. It's simple enough, but one can derive so much meaning from it. Thank you for a lovely review.

I liked the fact that there was a diverse collection rather than focusing too much on one topic. This is a beautiful poetry.

I think I'd have to pass on this book. I'm not a fan of poems and this particular one contains some themes like slavery and racism which I don't fancy reading. However, the reviewer depicts an interesting review.

I’m not a big fan of poetry but I must commend this one because I’m bedazzled. I feel like if I don’t read this I might be missing out on something.
