Description of the Book:
From the dedication to the acknowledgement, this collection of poetry is about a mind in which there sits a child kicking and screaming to be heard while an adult waits by the door, eager to show face.
It talks about intoxicating feelings like love and joy, first relationships and infatuations. Not as simple as crushes and prom dates, but those that feel like roots anchoring deep into one's soil.
It talks about the tragedy and beauty of feelings of heartbreak and betrayal. Not those as futile as irrational anger and animosity, but grief and hurt that tears those roots right out of the ground.
It encompasses every aspect of life from the lens of a simple seventeen-year-old person trying to navigate a labyrinth of boys, girls, the good and the bad, mom, and dad - a life that isn't as mundane as it may seem.
It's the in-between and the whirlwind that is growing up.
it's not that deep.
Author's Name: skye (tia) manghnani About the Author: Skye has grown up in India, hopping from home to home in South Mumbai. They discovered their love for reading in the frayed pages of library books in primary school, and has continued to love the piles of fat novels on their disorganized shelves as an almost-adult. From this stemmed a love for writing, poetry, prose, diaries, stories, blogs, anything that flowed from pen to paper. When they aren't writing, you can find Skye watching episode after episode of sitcoms, burrowed in bed, or out with their friends, eyeliner winged and ready to paint the town red. They're in high school now, and have a long path ahead with many stories yet to write. Book ISBN: 9789358730883
