Please Pick Me by Reina Regina

4.0

Please Pick Me is the first book I finished this month and I can say that there's no better way to start this holiday season with a reminder of how brave we can be and how worthy we are as a person.

This poetry is a surprise December pick because I am not expecting to be chosen as one of @CaffeineTours hosts for this book tour.

Note: I received an Advanced Reader’s Copy of this book from the publisher and Caffeine Book Tours as part of my participation in their tour. If you're interested in learning more about this tour, you can visit this link:

REVIEW

Please Pick Me is a one-of-a-kind book that not only explores the fragility of being human but also reminds us that it's okay - it's okay to be true to yourself and go for what you want.

I dived into this book without any information aside from the fact that it has been featured in some of my booksta mutuals' feed. After reading the book, I can say that the Please Pick Me hype is justified and this book deserves to be picked up from bookshelves.

An equally engaging and insightful read, Reina Regina bravely dissected the human aspect that deals with what we want, and successfully concluded that the thin line that separates us accepting someone's love and us actually fighting for the love we think we deserve is courage.

I actually enjoyed each part that deals with the stages of life if we compare it to parts of a plant and my favorites are Roots and Seeds as these sections captured the reality of us living in the present and what great power we have with our future at stake.

Overall, this book taught me about acceptance, bravery, and self-love. It may be a cliche to say this, but I guess it's fitting to remind ourselves that sometimes, it's okay to go with what our heart wants.

RATING: 4stars
