I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I love this series of poetry collections so much and when I saw the third on NetGalley I had to request it. This book was just as good as the first two. There's something about Courtney Peppernell's writing that just makes me feel good.

Darling, I breathe for you; my heart is
yours, for every rose that blooms.

This came into my life when I greatly needed it, so so many of the poems are bookmarked. Definitely loved this.

Her poetry is fun, but has the depth of a raindrop. Also she used the word “vibes” too much for my liking, there’s few words I have more than that one. I’m sorry to be a hater.

“The mountain is to climb, not to carry on your shoulders.”

Courtney I love your work!

I devoured this 3 book collection of poems (Pillow Thoughts) these last few days.

I can’t wait to read more from Courtney’s work.

I am a big fan of Courtney peppernells writing, she has inspired me more times than I can count, this is the second time I’ve finished one of her books within an hour or two of picking it up. Absolutely love this book

At book 1 I thought the instagramable poetry was at least accessible to most audiences and wasn't terrible as it must've helped a lot of people. By book 3, I feel like Peppernell is recycling the same lines over and over again. Every poem just felt like one big motivational poster. I have one more book to go in this series.

A positive of this book is it is a really quick read so quite good if you need to get out of a slump!

Loved it, I marked so many pages. Multiple times I had to put the book down and repeat the words over in my head because they just hit me that much.

5/5. I would give it more if I could.

(I know her style of poetry and prose isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I'm a sucker for it.)

Courtney Peppernell has done it again. She has embodied words that speak to my soul. Every poem had this reassuring and soothing vibe that whispered, "You aren't alone. I understand. Others understand. Keep your chin up." So poignant and powerful.
