~Thank you to NetGalley for providing me an ARC in exchange for an honest review~
a reflective, yet hopeful exploration of the author's trauma and grief told in rhythmic verse. while i love the gorgeous rhymes and figurative language throughout this collection, i could've done without the one/two-line "poems" that felt more like "instagram poetry" and filler for the collection as a whole. the wellness/self-help vibe of this story could've been communicated in many less, but larger pieces. with that said, i'm a big fan of the affirmations that this collection sends as well as Biddy's style as a poet overall, so I'd recommend this for anyone looking for a quick journey into the process that is healing.
