“You’re probably wondering whether what you experienced was really ‘that bad?’。 Let me tell you - If you have to question it, if it hurts, if it still runs through your mind, it was。 You don’t have to feel guilty over the pain you’re feeling。”

Robin Stolk

Overrated, and too expensive 。

Abigail Milian

some pages were a sentence longwell written and very trauma informed, but 123 pages and i read it in a day, and i didn’t even spend the whole day reading… some pages were a sentence long。 it’s not enough for a whole book。 needs so much more。

I'd say it's a 2。5, I mean its poetry but it got some shit that no one dares to say it to themselves bc they just feel like they cant, the book can speak for you in many ways I'd say it's a 2。5, I mean its poetry but it got some shit that no one dares to say it to themselves bc they just feel like they cant, the book can speak for you in many ways 。。。more

This book is so beautifully written。 I've been going through a difficult time lately and I found this book recommended by someone on TikTok and all the sudden I just get this urge to immediately read it and I finished it in maybe like an hour and it was absolutely perfect it was such a beautiful book it was exactly what I needed。I gave it five stars because there wasn't one quote or poem that I wanted to skip or that I didn't relate to so I would definitely recommend this book to anyone。 This book is so beautifully written。 I've been going through a difficult time lately and I found this book recommended by someone on TikTok and all the sudden I just get this urge to immediately read it and I finished it in maybe like an hour and it was absolutely perfect it was such a beautiful book it was exactly what I needed。I gave it five stars because there wasn't one quote or poem that I wanted to skip or that I didn't relate to so I would definitely recommend this book to anyone。 。。。more

Wunderschönes Buch, bewegt mich genauso wie Rupi Kaur。 Werde ich noch oft zur Hand nehmen。

This didn’t really feel like poetry。 I still gave this five stars cause I loved the writing。 Hard truths were my favorites。 Made me want to heal。

This was another poet I discovered through Instagram and bought her book out of my commitment to paying artists for their art that I consume on social media for free (whenever I can)。 I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this short, sweet collection。 There are so many passages that are a comfort, and I’ve already bought another copy as a gift for someone else。

Why are people publishing Instagram quotes and calling it poetry

Miitu

highly recommended!! this was a fast but super rewarding read for me - it felt like i was talking to a dear friend whom i had knows for years ♡ also, my dear friend borrowed this to me and i left little sticky note messages in it for her to read ♡

Abir

It was just nice。。。

Khushi

made me cry

Tiffany McCrary

A quick read。 Some of these felt a little like cheesy platitudes and instagram captions, but some were really beautiful and impactful。 Would probably be best be consumed one or two at a time。

It felt like a pep talk after heartbreak, although I miss the days in which poetry actually rhymed。 Loved the hard truths, I found myself sharing many of them with my bff。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 This had really beautiful pieces, some of my fav were :-you are not the things they said to you in the throes of anger。-Trauma didn’t make you stronger   You did that。  -You don’t need to prove you’re hurting for your pain to be real。  -It took us so long to build and just seconds to break。-You deserve more than the position of emotional handyman。  -You want everyone to like you but do you like you?

I loved it。 This book is full of words you need to hear。 Yes, it hurts。 Yes, it's confronting。 Yes, it will help you heal bit by bit。 I loved it。 This book is full of words you need to hear。 Yes, it hurts。 Yes, it's confronting。 Yes, it will help you heal bit by bit。 。。。more

I miss those times when poetry was actually poetry

I don't know how I want to describe this book! Like it made me feel so at ease! This is not one of the traditional self help books you read。 It's a set of quotes that would make you feel like home, that would make you feel you are not alone。 It has a quotes about healing, about love, about self care, about acceptance etc。I love reading quotes online so getting a set of quotes that feels like are customized just for you, made me feel so light and amazing。 And the last line the author wrote was"I I don't know how I want to describe this book!

absolutely love! Love every word of this! Inspiring and uplifting。 Love love love。 I’m so glad I bought this and can read and re read whenever I want 。 So many great quotes

Beautiful!Like Zara says at the end, the book indeed reached the crevices in my heart。 Everytime I feel like I'm falling apart, I read the book and I am relieved。 The most realistically comforting words I've ever read。 It felt like I was there for myself instead of waiting for someone to be there。 Beautiful!Like Zara says at the end, the book indeed reached the crevices in my heart。 Everytime I feel like I'm falling apart, I read the book and I am relieved。 The most realistically comforting words I've ever read。 It felt like I was there for myself instead of waiting for someone to be there。 。。。more

Not my favorite but definitely a good book of poetry。 There were moments that I had emotional connections to the pieces and starting tearing up。 The piece on page 47 definitely was my favorite of the book。

Leeza Alpen

Zara's book was soothing, thought-provoking and beautifully raw。 I devoured the entire collection, and then turned back to the first page and started reading again。 Separated into two sections, 'Soft Truths' and 'Hard Truths' both comforted me and then reinforced some eye-opening epiphanies。 Numerous times I just had to stop reading and stare at the ceiling for a little while because her prose really hit me where I needed it most。 This book contains medicine for old aches。 Zara has clearly poure Zara's book was soothing, thought-provoking and beautifully raw。 I devoured the entire collection, and then turned back to the first page and started reading again。 Separated into two sections, 'Soft Truths' and 'Hard Truths' both comforted me and then reinforced some eye-opening epiphanies。 Numerous times I just had to stop reading and stare at the ceiling for a little while because her prose really hit me where I needed it most。 This book contains medicine for old aches。 Zara has clearly poured so much of her heart into this and I just couldn't recommend it enough。 Definitely my poetry book of the year so far。 Was exactly what I personally needed。 。。。more
