“The Ship We Built” by Lexie Bean • Book Review
“I hope someone celebrates me when I change.”
★★★★ (4 / 5 stars) The Ship We Built is a beautiful story told beautifully. I would strongly recommend this read for any young person who chooses silence over speech, who buries their nose in a book to avoid conversation, who seems to drift miles away while only inches from you. It is equal parts powerful and hopeful and the book I wish a 10-year-old me had had to read when I felt alone and lost and misunderstood.
“The Sun and Her Flowers” by Rupi Kaur • Book Review
“why is it
that when the story ends
we begin to feel all of it”
★★★★ (4 / 5) This is a beautiful collection of poetry. Part of what struck me is the raw honesty and difficult topics that are so akin to the poetry my friends and I wrote in college, I was immediately taken aback.
The poems are little love notes and scraps of memory left on the pavement for us to find and cherish and tape together, hoping the patchwork lives up to the real thing.
