More male interventionist God than I was expecting or hoping for. But beautiful, healing poems besides that.

I read this all in one night. Starting it earlier this evening, I read a few pages, thinking “this is weird, when I read poetry books I usually read about 5 poems and sit and think about them for a while or post one that means something to me.” But for this one, I didn’t feel the need to stop and contemplate them because they seemed, altogether, to mean the same thing in a way. The words “Heal yourself” were in almost every poem and the vocabulary didn’t progress very far. So, I’ll end in saying it’s not anything to get excited about and I wouldn’t recommend it. A little disappointed, after receiving it as a birthday present from a friend.🥺 I’m sure the author meant well, but it could have been worked on a bit more in my opinion.

I'm sure this will help those who need to hear the "just pick yourself up" and "God is gonna get you through this" and inspirational quotes like that. That's not my jam. Which is fine. It's an easy read. Read it in a morning.
But when I read the poem that the first half is "you don't need pills to..." and the second half was "you just need God to...", that's what sealed the deal to decide to write this. Because reading that, to me, feels like it's saying that 1, that medication isn't ever what's needed, 2, that depression can be fixed just by trying hard enough, and 3, that if it's not fixed, you just aren't connecting with God enough. And that, to me, felt like it could really be harmful.

SLOW

This book was very slow and the flow was just not there. The ‘poems’ were way too wordy and very religious. I could barely finish this book. With that being said, I could see where the Author was trying to go with their words. The words themselves were great, but all together too wordy and no flow.

I really wanted to like this book… I just didn’t, unfortunately. I think the idea and the concept is terrific, but the cadence and flow was never quite right. It felt more like I was reading a book full of inspirational quotes, which is fine, just not what it is advertised as.

[Kari Sherwood · Rating 3 out of 5]

I was turned off by how many of the poems mentioned God and prayer. That may be fine for some, but as an atheist it didn't appeal to me.

[Leon Simmons · Rating 2 out of 5]

EXTREMELY repetitive, so boring this book could’ve been 10 pages to be honest.

[Melanie Underwood · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another heartfelt and inspiring collection.

Nice way to undertake a healing journey.

[Heidi · Rating 4 out of 5]

I had to fight back tears so many times. I annotated and underlined and wrote in this book, which I normally never do. Highly recommend. It felt like a warm hug 😭

Deep poetry about healing with depression. However, I felt it was somewhat repetitive.
