Customer Reviews
An absolutely enlightening, poignant, witty, relatable, and intimate journey. We all have those “in-between” times - those hard to describe time periods between a catalytic moment and whatever comes next. As a reader, I’m so grateful that the author chose to make use of their “in-between” by writing this book. I find myself immersed in it, and I find it easy to thumb through. I especially like to refer back to it. Especially one piece in particular, on page 10. It starts like so:
“It feels like learning to walk for the first time
wobbly,
unsteady,
courageous.”
This piece speaks to me in many ways, but most of all in a very literal sense. I have a rare autoimmune disorder, and in the last 3 months, it has largely robbed me of my ability to walk. I “can” walk, but every time I do, it’s kind of like doing it for the first time, so that piece in particular really speaks to me. There are many memorable pieces throughout the book though, so I encourage you to add it to your collection. See which pieces speak to your “in-between.”
Everyone can relate to the pages in this book. Truly enjoyed it!
I am not a good enough writer to describe how amazing this book is. It does an amazing job at taking you through the journey of an abusive relationship; how it starts like a dream and slowly turns dark. It taught me so many lessons and also helped me feel seen and come to terms with my own experiences. What I enjoyed the most though, was the ability of the writer to make my heart ACHE. There are poems that will leave you breathless and needing to take a pause. IN THE BEST WAY. I also loved that the way the book is organized because it takes you through the whole journey beginning to end.
Simply the best, most profound collections of stories that are so real, important, and hit you right in the gut where you realize it’s okay to feel. 🖤
This book gets 5 stars for me it really is so beautifully written and written with the readers in mind even if you don’t relate to every subject in the book there really is something for everyone to connect to which I really love🤍
