The cover is just gorgeous and I am loving the title of the book!!!.It's like Bridgett Devoue grabs your heart, shaping it, just like your hands would shape a piece of clay. | Advance Review Copy generously provided by NetGalley. I had to pick one quote (because that is what I do often while writing a review) but I couldn't just pick one quote, I had to pick many because this book is filled with so many beautiful quotes and poems. I have never felt the things she did, and yet I can relate to every word. I found out I had nothing to fear after the introduction, Bridgett Devoue just takes your heart and stabs it with words, till your heart bleeds as much as hers. Let me start my review by telling you that I went into this with doubt, the last book I read filled with poems wasn't a good read. This is the book for the curious, the dreamers, and the struggler’s, those who carry an insatiable urge to grow and the knowledge that life offers more for the fearless explorers of the unknown this book speaks to the aching soul that lives in all of us.
