I felt very moved by many of the poems in this collection. I can be a very negative person and cling to difficult and negative experiences for years. I still have issues with being bullied when I was a kid. I still write poems about someone I broke up with15 years ago. The poems in this collection focus on turning negatives into positives. Something I'm sure many people could do more of. The situations explored are universal. The poems are very free and easy to read. I felt they lacked real depth but were nevertheless enjoyable, perhaps because of their simplicity.
