Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. #SorryIHaventTextedYouBack #NetGalley

Today I want to talk about a book that from the first poem made me feel so many things while I was reading. Author – Alicia Cook is talking here about mental health, romance, depression, and struggling with real life. It was a fantastic journey and I'll be coming back to read this again and again.

Book full of poems ‘Sorry I Haven't Texted You Back' by Alicia Cook is an amazing reading experience. The book is made as a cassette. Even the cover is a cassette.

There is Side A with 92 poems and Side B with a mixtape of them.

Every poem has a song that the author was “currently listening to” that makes these poems even more special.

The poems are mostly sad but at the same time bring joy because you know you're not alone with similar feelings.

Side A is full of poems and I definitely didn't expect Side B would look like this, but I loved it so much! Alicia was really creative with the way she made Side B. It's something unique and new after we read all 92 poems from Side A.

I didn't like all of them but I think it's because of the life situations everyone is in. It's different and everyone who will read this will find something for themselves. This is the beauty of poems.

I had never read a poetry book by Alicia Cook before, and now I wonder why.
I absolutely love the concept of this book, and love the execution of it.
The poems are all very wonderful, I bookmarked so much of them. I think my favorite part of the book was side B of the ‘tapes', but I actually just loved the whole book.
I'm also a big fan of the ‘Currently listening to ....' notes on the end of each page, I made a playlist with these songs which I listened to while reading the book.
Last but not least, I think it's very good that a trigger warning is shown at the beginning of the book. I think every author should do this.
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
