Excellent book of poetry. It's been on several hikes with me this summer. Some books of poetry are meant to be read, not spoken. This is not one of them. This book should be read with aloud with all emotion. (

This was a great collection. I liked some poems more than others, but it was a good read overall. I have a couple of new favorite poems and I can't wait to see what else this author writes. (

I received this book as part of the Early Reviewers program and honestly hesitated to finish it because I was so deeply moved by it. Every poem told it’s own story, and the collection truly brought them all together. I think Sophia Thakur has done something amazing by sharing these poems and I’m so glad I had the opportunity to enjoy them. (

A very powerful collection of poetry straight from the heart. Sophia Thakur is a performer and that comes through on the page as you hear her voice. Reading the poems aloud is the best way to experience them. Many of the poems are about new love - the heaven and the heartbreak. I am in the calm of 50 years of love but I remember the beginnings; these poems brought much back. Share this with the young adults in your life; they will see themselves. (
