I really find this book so heart-touching although poetry isn't my favourite genre. How the author poured feelings into the poems, how they were relatable. Absolutely artistic.
Thank you for your review.

The review is well written .
I read the sample only. I really did not care for the poetry in this one. Modern poetry is not a favorite of mine so, this is not surprising.

This sounds like a memoir made up of poems. I love poetry, especially ones that address topics like love, heartbreak, and loss. It sounds like an emotionally charged collection. Thanks for the detailed review.

Poems can release tension and brings inspirations. It is a great thing in addition that it is an easy read. Hope to find it interesting and relatable also. congrats on BOTD

Love has many nuances, and it's nice to find this reflected in a charming collection of poems. It's good to know that the words used in this book are easy to understand; likewise, knowing that you can connect and identify with each idea expressed by her is quite interesting. Without a doubt, this is a book to read and share. Thanks for this honest review.

I agree with you. It is easy to read so I immediately felt the author's emotions even in the 1st few pages.

Thank you for your wonderful review. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. I think I like the idea of poetry, but I no longer believe I understand it. From what I think I understood this book to mean, it was more the hurtful times and I don't need any more reminders of those right now. I'm sure many that enjoy poetry will enjoy it, but I am going to pass on it.

I don't usually read poems, not because I dislike them but I find them complex in general. However this review mentioned that this one is easy to read, fast paced and relatable. I will give it a try.

The review was a bit tedious and repetitive but altogether it communicated the book and it's content. I'm not a lover of poetry but I still wish to congratulate the author for courageously and artistically putting her thoughts and life to paper. A writer who can convey their message through poetry is a literary master. A great choice of BOTD!

A great review, it seems like this book has a lot to offer, as education to others, because it feels like it is relatable to the many outside there.

Lovely story! I like stories of people who were shaped through tough experiences just like losing love. Great review.

If the bed or roses were thornsbthat would be my experience of love not the petals, I like that the author has the realization which does give it a different angle. I look forward to reading the whole book and not just the preview.

I love poetry, and this sounds like a beautiful collection about love, heartbreak, and the growth that comes from both. The image of a butterfly is a great symbol of these concepts. Thanks for the lovely review!
