I Must Belong Somewhere: Poetry and Prose by Dawn Lanuza

4.0

*4.5 stars
Trigger warning: This book contains discussions on death, suicide ideation, violence, bullying, injury, self-harm, body image, sexism, and mental health. As mentioned on the first page. I'm praising the author for inserting the trigger warnings.

This book is a powerful reflection on oneself's life in longing, displacement..., It is beautifully written and emotional. I think it is perfect for early teens looking back. The author shows her struggles and her journey with mental health and self-esteem.

This is extremely raw which makes it all better, and it helps you to connect with the author on a deeper level. I found myself in some of her poems and prose. Excellent collection
