This was beautiful, powerful and heartfelt. I could feel the emotion and importance behind the poet’s words and thoroughly enjoyed immersing myself in her words.

Powerful, uplifting and eye opening. This set of poems are thought provoking, heartbreaking, harrowing and yet beautiful. AJ Turner has a way with words which grip the reader from the start to finish, showing you the truth and empowering you to take a stand against this injustice.
Thanks to NetGalley for giving me access to this title.

Breathe is the powerful and evocative voice of A.J. Turner calling out racism and social injustice, and the disrespect therein that causes daily suffering. These are words that demand to be said aloud, and so alone in my room I propelled them from my mouth with mounting frustration and passion. I would strongly suggest that you experience Breathe in the same way. Highly recommended.

Many thanks to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for an ARC.
