"I bought this because I love poetry. I love how an author expresses life through their eyes and this new author didn't hold back!"

Touched my heart!!

"Ended up in a Barnes & Noble on a whim on a Saturday evening, and talked to Char at a booth she had set up. Poetry normally isn't my thing, but I wanted to support a local author, so I ended up buying it, and I'm so glad I did! Each poem was filled with so much heart and emotion that I could almost put myself into the perspective of the writer each time! Would definitely recommend to any type of reader!"

Absolutely wonderful!

"It was a pleasure to meet Char and get to support such a courageous woman! Page 54 will connect with anyone who reads it ???? Support local authors!!!"

Beautiful
