I really enjoy R.H. Sin's poetry. I have ever since college. However, I'm now happily married and I find it hard to relate to his poems now. I'm not enjoying them how I used to. But, I think that's the point. I think he writes his poems to help his readers when they need it.


With all that being said, I hope one day he writes more poems about love and being in love to relate to all of his readers who are no longer broken and/or in bad relationships.

Meh…. This was basically a collection of instagram captions.

For every girl who has been with (or is with) a narcissist.

This series did not speak to me like I was hoping it would. Based on the summary and dedication, I thought I would find something more akin to women being strong for their own merit, not following a separation.

Incipit; The opening words of a text.
Incipit is a collection of poetry. It is the first part of the 2 book box set called I Hope She Finds This. It was alright. I’ve read better poetry, and worse. I did save a few quotes, you can see below.

Genre: Poetry

“Tired of missing things
That no longer belong to me
Now dealing with the heartbreaking task
Of figuring out what’s wrong with me.” 9

“Life’s too short to be unhappy.” 36

“Things do get better.” 37

“The most I could say was nothing
My silence the sound of bombs.” 67

———————————————————————————

Vale is a collection of poetry. It is the second part of the 2 book box set called I Hope She Finds This. It was okay. I’ve read better poetry, and worse. I did save a few quotes, you can see below.

Genre: Poetry

“Your heart is heavy because it’s filled with everything you don’t say.” 19

“The stars are dead; don’t wish on them.” 55

“You bring a piece of heaven with you wherever you go.” 102

Incipit:
Fear of lonely.
There's a form of loneliness so painful that it makes you miss people, even the ones who hurt you the most.

I have always struggled with telling people how I feel because I never want my sadness to be a burden. And maybe this is why I've held on to the fractured parts of myself for so long, afraid that heartache would weigh you down or push you out of my life.

Vale:
You expect the right things from the wrong person; that's why you're unhappy at this very moment.

I think I drown the stories that would otherwise make me a burden to others. I drown these stories so deep that even I struggle to find whatever's left. And so, a part of me is always lost, incomplete, struggling toward the surface, weighed down by the guild of fucking up someone else's life with my own. My silence an act of betrayal to myself and the emotional truths that live within my soul.

When you can't find the light become it
When you decide to search for something meaningful don't forget to look for yourself first

[Abigail · Rating 4 out of 5]

It was a solid book, well actually it is two books. I found it very repetitive and I swear that I read the same poems more than once. I wish I had read it just coming out of my last relationship instead of happily entrenched in my current one, but also it was good to reflect and remember.

I really liked the ending of the last book how the last few poems were all closing poems. They were steps to saying goodbye.

This book said “hell” way too much. It needed a new adjective, what adjective that could be I have no idea.

Content Warnings:
Graphic: Infidelity, Grief, Cursing, and Toxic relationship

[Katelyn Koziol · Rating 2 out of 5]

There were some good ones in here don’t get me wrong but this could’ve been a short and sweet book with good ones instead of so many pages of repetitive work that dimmed the ones that I liked. So many of them were the same where I felt like I was reading the draft document that he hadn’t edited down and where he made 30 versions of the same poem. Tons of basic comparisons to the relationship being hell (and no thoughtful plays on that—just literally saying it was hell and that’s the poem *or rather that’s 50 poems*) seems like this books was just made for a couple nice throwaways on social media and the rest were repeats trying to find what stuck.

[Yekaterina · Rating 3 out of 5]

Definitely not my favorite work by r h sin but it was decent. I had high expectations because of the way it was packaged and advertised “can’t get these books anywhere else..”. It met my expectations about 75% of the way. R h sin is almost solely for broken people. As someone now in a good marriage, I feel like I’ve outgrown his dramatic sadness. Though the writings do bring back old pains and memories, I find that I’d rather keep them back there. Also pages 29 to 60 were missing and 62-92 were in there twice.

[Christine Cozzo · Rating 2 out of 5]

DNF - I made it to p. 27 of the second book.

There are a few gems in here, but overall full of repetitive insta-poems. I also didn't particularly enjoy the writing style as the author speaks directly to the readers, assuming a lot about their current love lives. It felt uncomfortable, like someone you just met giving bad relationship advice. There's higher quality poetry waiting, and I could only bear this for so long.

That said, here's my favorite line from this collection:

I burned that bridge because I knew you wouldn't swim to me

[Abbee Dillard · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lock in you heartbroken ladies, this one’s for you…

If you like poetry or writing like Rupi Kaur’s, this is for you. I have had this book for years and I found it at the perfect time. The kind words of another who went through the same thing as you, in simple poetic form that can make you cry, help your feelings to feel valid even though they already are, and to gain confidence and encouragement that you are the light.

Just listen to this:

you have a partner
and yet it still feels like
you’re dancing by yourself

Like hello??? ugh

Anyways, buy it

[Samantha · Rating 4 out of 5]

Overall, I liked the two books writing-wise, although quite a few poems were one sentence on a page, which I wasn't keen on and/or they sounded more like catchy one-liners you read on social media. I loved r. h. Sin's section in the book Falling Towards the Moon, but this box set was focused on someone who had been broken hearted by a partner/lover, so I couldn't relate very much to the poems; it wasn't for me.

[Chloe McBee · Rating 4 out of 5]

Some of the pieces really make you feel something, but I’m not sure the author has ever been in a decent relationship. Of the last 4 books of his I’ve read, they’ve all been horribly depressing, beautiful, but sad. I didn’t anticipate all of his work would be about bad relationships and leaving them…

[Katarina · Rating 5 out of 5]

I read both & for you to truly enjoy them I think you’ll have had to of experienced something similar to what their saying or have personally been through such trials. They’re both beautifully written & had I found them sooner during my relationship I probably would have listened to the message that both are sending.

[Tyler Jenkins · Rating 4 out of 5]

Still mostly the repetitive nature I’ve come to expect from Sin but seriously some of his best writing so far. I hate that these two books aren’t listed separately so I can get 2 for my reading goal but the bundle package is super neat.

[Bri Irving · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very beautifully written collection on hurt, separation & choosing yourself. This collection wasn't written for me but I did enjoy reading the poet's words. I could feel the emotion and heartache in each passage and I hope this collection finds those the poet was hoping to reach.

[Aline · Rating 2 out of 5]

Honestly felt a bit too much like victimised mansplaining of female heartbreak to me.

[Leo Woolley · Rating 5 out of 5]

this is too real it should be illegal who allowed this to be published then bought by me

I guess I never learn my lesson because his books always resonate with me.

Incipit - ⭐️
Vale - ⭐️⭐️

Overall, 1.5 stars but rounding down to a 1. Pretty shallow “poems” that only revolves around toxic relationships

“Friends with benefits only work if you’re both reaching a climax. Otherwise, you’re just assisting someone in their literal attempt at screwing you over.”
