Pause is a powerful and beautifully curated collection of poems and stories that truly lingers in your mind. Each piece offers something unique—some are hard-hitting and emotional, while others are quietly reflective or deeply thought-provoking. The range of voices and writing styles is one of the collection’s greatest strengths. I loved how each story and poem felt personal yet universally relatable. It’s the kind of book you can return to again and again, always finding something new to feel. An absolute gem for anyone who appreciates honest, heartfelt writing.
