eighteen years by Madisen Kuhn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
“you have to fight to be alright // it may not be easy, but it’s worth it”
Writing that eloquently captures what is it like to be a human being attempting to figure life out.
This collection of poetry brings upon a deep feeling of melancholy. Madisen Kuhn’s writing is so raw & fervent, taking all of the 3 AM thoughts that I thought could only belong to me & sharing it in a beautiful way. The words within the pages feel so familiar, like friends I haven’t spoken to in a while, but still comfortable with.
I have read this book but I am certain that I am not actually done reading this book. In years to come I will pull this book from my shelf & flip through it, reading the notes I have made & see how I have grown as a person.
This book felt like it was written for me.
