This is the first poetry book I am picking up by Faraway. I've seen some beautiful quotes on pinterest by this author so I decided to dive into Faraway’s works.
This work is a short collection of modern poetry. The themes are falling in love, loosing the person you love and overcoming the grief and pain that comes with it.
It's a solid read, but nothing exceptional. I'll definitely remember some lines and poems and I know for sure I'll come back to this at some point, rereading some parts.
Personally I think I’d be more affected by it if I actually went through heartbreak. But I've already read a couple of great poetry works that affected me deeply although I didn't experience these things firsthand.
Faraway chooses their words with caution and knows how to write lovely, relatable poems. For sure I am going to read their other works in the near future.
PS: The cover and the title of this book are stunning and really fitting.
