The House That Raised Me Wrong: a book of messy truths

By Tanner Atchison

The House That Raised Me Wrong is a raw, unflinching collection of messy truths. Through poems born of survival, Tanner Atchison confronts love, faith, grief, and the quiet, persistent child within. This is not a story of redemption-it is loud, it is whispered, it is heartbreak in empty rooms and prayers in forgotten pews.

Tanner doesn't offer answers. Instead, they offer honesty, fragments of a self reclaimed amid chaos. For anyone who has loved where they shouldn't, hurt where no one could see, or searched for pieces of themselves in the wreckage, this book holds a mirror-and a companion.

This is confession. This is survival.
