Loving, Longing, and Other Liminal Spaces

by Kelly Peacock

This is for the ones who are learning the difference between loving someone and longing for them. This is for the ones who are letting go of a love that was not meant for them, who are grieving a relationship that they should never have settled for. This is for the ones who are learning to forgive themselves for accepting less than they deserve. This is for the ones who are trying to be kinder to themselves and to trust their bodies, who are still healing from their hurt. This is for the ones who are trying to navigate the liminal space of self-love and self-abandonment, who are trying to come back home to themselves.

This is for you.

Loving, Longing, and Other Liminal Spaces is Kelly Peacock’s second collection of prose.

I was lucky enough to get an early look at this book, and let me tell you: this is perfect for anyone who knows what it’s like to be stuck in limbo while trying so hard to let someone go. Kelly’s words truly have the ability to reach through the page and burrow right into your heart, not only because the emotions she evokes are so relatable but also because, in writing about her own healing, she’s able to remind her audience that even when you’re stuck in the worst of it, there is so much empathy and self-love on the other side. So if you’ve been struggling through heartbreak or grieving the loss of someone who’s still alive—or the loss of who you were when you were with that person—definitely give this one a read. It’s beautiful, gut-wrenching, sentimental, and ultimately hopeful.
