Charlie Davis is in pieces. At seventeen, she’s already lost more than most people lose in a lifetime. But she’s learned how to forget it through cutting; The pain washes out the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. She doesn't have to think about her father or what happened under the bridge. Her best friend, Ellis, who is gone forever. Or the mother who has nothing left to give her. Kicked out of a special treatment center when her insurance runs out, Charlie finds herself in the bright and wild landscape of Tucson, Arizona, where she begins the unthinkable: The long journey of putting herself back together. Review: Fabulous piece of poetry - This book made me fall in love with poems. The depth of emotion conveyed in each poem is truly remarkable, while reading I found myself immersed in vivid scenarios that evoked goosebumps and left me shivering at times. Humans are capable of feeling a spectrum of emotions, and this book excited every single one of them. There is so much every single person goes through but never thinks about their situation and ignores it but every part of life plays an important role and there is so much to learn from it. If one looks closely at their life, one can relate to every single poem in this book. Such a spectacular way of penning down those emotions on a piece of paper is not a child's play. And the best part is that at this young age, the poet has gone through all these circumstances and the observation of every incident is tremendous. Also "Peace in the Pandemonium" justifies what the poet wants to express which is, that even in the most tragic and chaotic part of life you can find peace, you have to. There is nothing fancy in the content everything is pure truth and harsh reality which everyone can relate to. And the book ends with a beautiful line "because without you, so many of us would feel so lost" which emphasizes the importance of life as not only it affects oneself but all the people around us. I have been affected by this book in the most positive way possible and would recommend everyone to read this book atleast once in their life. Review: great - "I'm absolutely thrilled with my recent purchase from MD Sellers Collection! My package arrived promptly and was exceptionally well-packaged. The quality of the items exceeded my expectations, especially considering the great prices. I'm already looking forward to my next shopping spree with MD Sellers Collection. Highly recommended!"

Amazing Book
I was beyond excited to read this book for the Sunday Street Team. I think more people should tell darker stories, because they exist in our world. This was an amazing book. The writing was heartbreakingly beautiful. I received a copy from Netgalley to review, and ended up giving this book 5 out of 5 stars. As soon as I picked up this book, I pretty much didn’t want to put it down…except to take some breaks when my heart felt like it had cracked open in my chest. The book wasn’t all darkness, but it definitely wasn’t a happy book. Which is fine with me, because life isn’t sunshine and daisies 24/7. Charlie’s story, and even a lot of the secondary characters stories, will resonate with a lot of people. I absolutely loved Charlie’s character. She seemed so real. My heart ached for her, and the people surrounding her, that have to deal with inner and outer demons. I really liked a lot of the female characters in this book, but barely any of the male characters–except a couple. A lot of the guys were jackasses. Charlie goes through so much in this book, and by the end, I’m glad she has people she can turn to, people she can rely on. Honestly, I think everyone should read this book. It reminds you that sometimes bad things–overwhelming things–happen. But with some supportive friends, you can embrace life to its fullest. One of my favorite things about this book is that you can feel the raw pain and emotion. Kathleen wasn’t scared to show the downs of life, to show how the tornado building inside you can lash out at any moment. I made notes of some gorgeous lines while reading: “We all have our Kiefer stages, when we want to destroy ourselves in order to create. To see if that’s beautiful, too.” and “I say the wrong thing, if I can bring myself to say anything at all. I’ve always felt like an intrusion, a giant blob of wrong.” and “I’m so unwhole. I don’t know where all the pieces of me are, how to fit them together, how to make them stick. Or if I even can.” Final note: An amazing book. It’s definitely dark, but it has an optimistic ending. I’m so glad I read this book. As soon as I finished reading, I bought myself a copy for my personal collection. I’d highly recommend this one.
