One reviewer wrote, "Some of my favorite poems in the world are in this book! I feel every word, followed by feelings of comfort and gratitude for the bravery and personal growth it took for her to share her truth. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It inspires me to do my own writing, my own growing and my own inspiring."
