This series isn't for me. The poetry in this book kinda gave you advice as a reader. When I'm reading poetry, that's not what I'm looking for - it gives me self-help vibes. This book was better than the last one for me though as it focuses on a sororal relationship. Any book that shows sisterly long increases my enjoyment
the only one stopping you from holding the moon in your own two hands is you.i feel seen.i've been a fan of the author for a long time and naturally i was excited to read her latest collection and it did not disappoint. i think i can safely say that i can add this to my favorite poetry collections because it has definitely left a mark on me.i was pleasantly surprised by the tw list at the beginning of the book and that's one thing i appreciate, alongside the amazing illustrations that fit the theme perfectly.the poems are empowering and beautiful and i found myself relating to most of them. i enjoyed it and i also enjoyed the first volume so i can only say that i'm so excited to see what the series has in store for us.***i received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. all the opinions are my own.
Another favorite, I am enjoying this new series of hers even better than the “women are some kind of magic” series. I cannot wait until the third comes out!
As a big fan of Lovelace's poetry, seeing a new book available is an auto-request for me.
I loved book 1 in the you are your own fairy tale series, and book 2 - this book - didn't dissapoint either!
I could recognize myself a lot in the poems that were written in this book. I could really identify with most of them, which made my reading experience very insightful.
Lovelace's words are so heartfelt and soothing. This book will for sure be an auto-buy when it releases!
I give this book 4,5 out of 5 stars.
