By the Time You Read This

By Ms Alexandria Elena O'Connor

By the Time You Read This is a collection of poetry from the mind of a fresh 19 year old girl, moving 9 hours from home and learning what it means to take care of herself physically and mentally for the first time. This book travels with the poet to Providence, Rhode Island where she is faced with falling in and out of love, drinking for the first time, and amongst other things, a collasping lung. She shares her stories in an array of poems, written in the first person, showing her thirst for knowledge of herself and others, as well as her want for love and to feel wanted. This book is meant to inspire, to help, and to above all express feelings that felt unknown. The poet's use of situational awareness along with the use of metaphors and analogy, make this collection anyone's game. Enjoy.
