Ry Reed was generous about sharing samples of her books to me — I love poetry, but poetry that doesn’t speak to me is pointless, and sometimes it is very hard to buy a book of poems you haven’t tasted because who knows if that poetry is meant for you?

But my taste of this book left me wanting more. If you are the type who likes long rambling descriptive poems, this isn’t for you. These are short and pointed. I personally think it is more difficult to paint a picture of emotions with very little words, but when done correctly, it leaves you filling in your own feelings and the poem becomes yours in a way. I will definitely be picking this one up to read more.

This was such an amazing collection of poetry! A lot of the pieces in here I could relate to, one of them being plunge! If you’re looking for a collection of poetry I highly recommend these pieces because each one has a message, each one contains something that we can relate to whether your the dominant partner in your relationship wanting your partner to take more initiative in making plans, or your always showing up for others who don’t appreciate you nor reciprocate the same energy you provide them. Please support the writing of Ry Reed trust me when I say you won’t regret it!

This book was beautifully written in a way that makes us stop and think about who we are. Some of the main themes that caught my attention were: self-love, compassion, longing, and self-worth. I think these pieces were attention grabbing, especially ones like Sticky Fingers, Plunge, Lovesickness, and Screwup.

This book is really good. I enjoyed how direct and relatable it is. If you or someone is going through a break up or got broken up with I definitely recommend reading this, it's an easy read and the way Ry writes is so magical in a way that makes me want to just lie down on these pages and rest. Her words comfort me in a way that's hard to explain.

There are some deep and heart-wrenching moments in this book. Very real and relatable moments scattered throughout. There are a few passages that feel a little bit like a cliche one-liner, but they can still be reflected on powerfully. I also appreciate the very real advice that Ry Reed gives us on dating and relationships.

I received a sneak peak copy from the author on socials and I will be coming back for more. This book in particular was about the good and bad of relationships, the good is so good that the bad doesn’t seem so bad. And the bad makes you feel a little blue when it’s so relatable. I really enjoyed this work of art by Ry Reed!

I was sent a sample of this poetry book from the Author themselves & this is a honest review (as always) 🥰

I really did enjoy it, it was short for me ofc because it was less than 30 pages but within those pages i felt comforted by the poetry in a way that it felt like a warm natural hug from someone whom i once loved very much.

I absolutely adore this book and encourage anyone who is dealing with recent heartbreak or healing from old wounds to sit down, relax, and get lost in these pages. You'll find yourself somewhere between them.

This book is just a beautiful book of smiles. I felt those first crush butterflies as I read with this almost new love wonder of I remember the exact moment I felt like that too. Read it, you will not be sorry you did!

The words in this book hit me deep, and have stuck.
The poem Screwup, is one that especially lingered because of my actions towards a past relationship. Giving love and being loved and also feeling the effects of heartbreak. Learning to love myself through all my seasons. I loved this book.

I absolutely love this book. I was immediately captivated from page 1. I lost myself in a few of the pages and emotions took over. Definitely need a printed copy.

It's an awesome book and would recommend it to anyone who needs a little advice on what to do but it also teaches reassurance and how to appreciate someone

The words were so familiar, feelings and experiences that I’ve had trouble putting on paper. It was nice to know that someone else has felt the same.

This poetry isn’t really like every other poetry book. It is very unique and was definitely speaking to me. Love the insight this book provides into the two sides of love.
