This is well written and properly articulated review. My curiousity has been aroused by this review and look forward to exploring this work.

I think I am more interested in the poems that address the issue of atheism and God. Those are topics dear to my heart.

This book seems wonderfully diverse. I think it's lovely that the author touched various topics. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan of poetry.

This is a unique inspirational women's poetry book highlighting a collection of numerous realistic, thought-provoking sayings and poems. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has an inciteful OnlineBookClub review. Congrats on the BOTD selection.

I like that the author includes thought-provoking sayings that give the reader a break from the poetry. This is a welcome break for those of us who do not enjoy reading poetry. Thank you for your review.

While this book sounds like a good read, I'll be skipping it because I don't read poetry.

I agree this is a good book for those new to poetry. The writing is concise and easy to follow, but the subject matter is complex and thought-provoking. My favorite poem is "Influenced by the West".

I'm not a fan of poetry, and even if I did want to read it, conversation-style poetry is definitely not my thing, so I'll be skipping it. However, I do feel that people will be able to enjoy it as it explores themes like relationship, parenting and hope.

I'm not into poetry but maybe I’ll start reading poetry. This sounds a like a light read. Thanks for your review!

I'm an introvert who doesn't really understand poetry but because this one contains contemporary topics and I'm trying hard to start enjoying poetry because I believe they have hidden meanings, I'll love to read this book. Thanks for the well-written review

I have never been a poetry lover. Finding a book of poetry that is easy to read and understand might help me start enjoying it. I am going to check this out! Thanks for the lovely review!

It's a great feeling to find a book you identify. And sometimes it's like finding your bestfriend in the author. Anyways, I like that the Green managed to include so many topics in their book. I'm curious what she said about capitalism

Poems that span through integral aspects of life are often exciting to read. They carry deeper meaning to live than what we see superficially. I enjoyed reading your review. Weldone.
