You can feel the pain in this poetry collection. You can feel the humanness and the pain of being alive. It’s like Sana Abuleil has let her skin bleed bare and opens. There is bravery and connection in this openness. It is years and their feelings written out on a page. It is healing. The drawings are beautiful and charming, and they reflect the flashes of images shown in this reading process. If you want to be plunged into the pain of the past and the joy of the future, read this.

Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this.

For some reason the ebook version has multiple of the same page, but other than that I loved it. I think there always things we wish we could tell our younger selfs.

Abuleil's way with words affected me deeply. I'm usually not that into poetry, but I really connected with quite a few of her poems. You can feel that what Abuleil writes about is deeply rooted in herself, and this vulnerability she's showing in her art is touching!
