Customer Reviews

Boring and filled with cliches

The first hint that this poetry book is mediocre is in the first few pages where the chain smokers band claims this book is amazing and helps with their writing. I still tried to give it a chance but there was only about two poems that I like and even then it’s not like they are provoking or re-inventive in any way. Just really boring surface level poetry, find something that’s actually creative because this book was not it.

Stop Thinking And Get It Now

Not only was this book eye opening but it truly re-evaluates the ideal of self love by allowing readers to gain perspective outside the typical thought process of “you are worth so much more”. This collection has become my most annotated book and I cant wait to dive into the next one!

Pillow Thoughts Helped Me

There's different categories of poems to match what you need. I chose to read the "If You Are Lonely" section, and I was not disappointed. It said what I needed to be told, and helped me

Top 10 poetry books

I absolutely love the poems. There is poems for when you miss someone, when you're heartbroken, and for when you just need to find yourself again.

Pillow Thoughts

After gaining an interest in the works of Rupi Kaur and R.H. Sin, I was on the lookout for similar books. If you enjoy these authors, you should read 'Pillow Thoughts.'

Whenever I feel down in the dumps this is the book I pick up.

It helps you understand your sadness and encourages you to keep going and push through whatever situation you're in. It just helps you calm down and clear your mind up.
