This is a wonderful collection of poems that express the emotions and struggles we often face as we cross over the bridge into adulthood. The collection of poems are beautifully written. Navigating our transformation into adulthood is such a challenging time in many of our lives. The poems in this book beautifully express the feelings and struggles we often feel and face as we try to figure ourselves out. It is not easy trying to find our place in this world or find the path we need to take for this amazing journey. We often long for the simple ways of our past, but long for the future too. We look back at our lives and wonder where we need to go next. This collection of poems brings these emotions to life and helps us feel like we are not alone in this journey. These poems express our hopes, our dreams, and our fears. Anyone who has gone through this journey will feel the connection to this book. The poems will touch the hearts of anyone that reads them. The style of writing is easy to understand and allows the reader to enjoy the poems. The writer expresses the feelings and emotions of young adults who have gone through the growing process in their 20s. Growing up is not always easy, but it is something we all have to do. The illustrations are well done and add to the book. This book would be a wonderful gift for someone graduating college or starting their life out on their own. We all have to go through this and we often have some of the same feelings, hopes, fears, and struggles. I really enjoyed this collection of poems and appreciated the writers openness. It is not always easy to let our feelings out for the world to see.
