I received this book in the mail today through a giveaway that I won on Goodreads. This book is not very long at only 44 pages but it had me captivated from the get-go. The heartache and love that were poured into these poems is astonishing.

This book was very moving and truly written from the heart. Emotions truly flow from the words that are written in the book. The author did a phenomenal job and I would love to hear more from him.

"As the book unfolds, Snee ruminates on the juxtaposition of treasuring uniqueness while also facing the reality of what it means to be different. People living with mental illness, be it mild or severe, often view the world from a different perspective to that of their peers; that can, in varying degrees, give an individual an interesting, or even exciting edge to their personality. It can also make the world a terribly lonely place to be. Although the narrative here belongs to the author, Snee takes a back seat in terms of subject matter. His breakdown is a starting point. The flesh and bones here belong to the aforementioned, lover lost to suicide."
