From the bestselling author of Pillow Thoughts and Watering the Soul comes another deeply honest and moving collection of poetry and prose, about the strength and resilience we embody in the face of hardship and change. Time Will Tell offers what Courtney Peppernell does best: hope, encouragement, and the beauty of looking inward.

I'm a fan of the poet and have enjoyed other collections. I really enjoyed Time Will Tell. In common with other collections by the poet this book has illustrations scattered throughout which emphasise the themes explored in the poems. The collection is split into six thematically linked sections. The structure of the poems are quite simple, mostly free verse but the themes explored are personal yet universal using vivid imagery. Some of the poems didn't have a title which I didn't like. I like titles as they can help ground the poem. I especially liked Forget-Me-Not, Forever In Time and The Way My Body Changed.
