این ادم همیشه من رو با شعرهاش شگفت زده کرده و عاشق زاویه دیدش به زندگی هستم. دلیل کم کردن یک ستارم بخاطر اینه که کتاب شعر the ocean ازش انقدر عالی بود که انتظارم رو حسابی برد بالا و احساس میکنم این یکی با اختلاف کمی یکم از اون پایین تر بود.

I read it all in 2 hours.
In fact, I don't speak English and initially I bought it for helping me learn English skills!
But after a while, I couldn't figure out how I got into the poetry!
It is a simple book, but it is also sweet and may caress your heart!
So if you need a book to make these days palatable to you, I suggest it ;)

I like the beautifully crafted soft words and artwork on the pages. Words reserve their own space to breathe on most of the pages. A simple yet elegant style is maintained throughout the book starting from the coverpage. It describes one's journey to her north while holding the hands of moon who's awaiting her completeness on her voyage.

Though, I expected something different. As the moon is the theme, therefore, I thought its phases will play a key string but this book talks about love, breakup and healing. I miss other elements of life in it.

Language is simple and I read it in one-sitting. At first, I thought to buy remainings from the northern light but now, I'm having second thoughts. Though, it is a good one-time read.

I had a lot of anticipation for this book after seeing snippets of it shared on Instagram. It is a beautiful book, if not slightly one-dimensional. The poetry reads more like a conversation between friends and is missing some elements of classic poetry for me. All in all, a very enjoyable read but it did not fully live up to my expectations.

Hey!! I just completed reading this book and I would like to say that it’s an incredible piece of art! I’ve learned so many things from this! It’s like the author has interpreted my thoughts in her poems and I would recommend it to every single person! It’s just so beautifully written.
