First, let me say that I really enjoyed this book. And there are so many reasons to say that. The frankness of the author when talking about their mental health diagnosis and treatment. Dealing with being a first generation daughter to an immigrant father. Using poetry as a tool to understand daily life. Yup, sounds like someone I know.

I adore Rumi, and more than poetry, I love reading about analyzing poetry, about words in general, making them make sense and understanding how different they are for each person that hears them but also important to each individual in their time.

Quit being a drop. Make yourself an ocean.
