Book review: Thoughts Alight Poetry, by Kawtar Elmrabti

I have been wanting to branch out to different genres, one of them being poetry, which I must admit has been short on my to-be-read list of late. The cover drew my eye immediately since it gives this relaxing and soothing feelings and motivated me to dive in!

This poetry collection is full of positive thoughts and heart-warming messages. I found it best to read a poem in the morning to brighten my day and a poem at night to go bed with something to think about. The book is divided into 4 main sections (Love thoughts, Hope Thoughts, Self Thoughts and Meditation Thoughts). My favorite poems were in the Hope thoughts section, with beautiful quotes such as “The Broken will always be able to love harder than most” or “Never apologize for burning too brightly” which I found relatable and which inspired constructive discussions between me and my boyfriend. If you enjoy poetry, these thoughts collection is full of love, hope and inspiration!
