I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!

"The Truth of You" is a beautiful poetry collection whose words express the love and sadness we all experience at some point in our lives. It would be hard to read through this selection and not feel some kind of connection to the words on the page. I'm sure most readers will be able to relate to many of the poems in this book. Thomas does an excellent job writing about happiness, loneliness, grief, and love. Though not all of the works are attention grabbers, the book certainly does its job of making the reader reflect on themselves and their own feelings.

There are some poems that speak to you. They feel like you, you ache to read them, and often it's hard to stop because you feel like you're meant to keep seeing the words the way they've been written.

Many of the poems in The Truth of You were like this for me.

They weren't all like this, some were misses that didn't grab me but others I stopped to read again and felt touch me. This book is full of poems about life, death, love, hate, and self reflection.

You will find some of the poems in here will speak to you as well if you take the time to try them.

Thank you NetGalley for letting me read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This collection of poems was so beautiful! The writing amazed me and I felt connected to so many pieces. A brilliant author, I'll definitely have in mind when I'm searching for poetry.

A gorgeous collection of poems and drawings. I absolutely loved reading every poem and would highly recommend it! The drawings add a nice touch to the book and honestly, it’s a great read.
