Review

This is a book of poetry with four sections named as follows:-

Unhinged - Putting the pieces back together

Falling

Holding On

Letting Go

It's beautifully typeset with so much wonderful white space so as to let the words really hang and sink in, with different fonts also occasionally used too.

You may not be a poetry reader, but this book is also I think a kind of self help book. It contains almost mantra like staves which struck a chord with me. Whilst you may not have time to read a wordy book to find a message that speaks to you, these easily accessible poems all have a message within them. Some are a little ruthless and obviously come from a place of hurt but even these have a healing message.

One of my favourite poems is "Smile Algorithm" from the Letting Go section. Wise words, easy to read and memorable. A book I will be dipping into over and over again.

I'm giving this book five out of five stars. My thanks to Love Books Tours and Olena Rose for a copy of the book to review.

The Girl on the Train - Paula Hawkins

Description THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER. YOU DON'T KNOW HER. BUT SHE KNOWS YOU. Rear Window meets Gone Girl , in this exceptional and startling psychological thriller Review I must be one of the last people to read this book. I did apply for a review copy but unfortunately wasn't successful. I then waited for the book to come down in price which it didn't - so I decided I would buy it and read it straight away! I'm sure it will be a film and before anyone gives away what happens I felt I really needed to get it read, so it jumped the TBR queue. There is not much plot outline from the publisher as you can see in the description above, so there wasn't a lot to go on when I began to read the book. First of all the book jumps around date wise - past and present and also between the main characters. I did have a little trouble remembering who was who and which time frame we were in - but that soon settled down. I also had to re-read the beginning because I th...
