Caroline Kaufman
In the vein of poetry collections like Milk and Honey and Adultolescence, this compilation of short, powerful poems from teen Instagram sensation @poeticpoison perfectly captures the human experience. In Light Filters In, Caroline Kaufman—known as @poeticpoison—does what she does best: reflects our own experiences back at us and makes us feel less alone, one exquisite and insightful piece at a time. She writes about giving up too much of yourself to someone else, not fitting in, endlessly Googling “how to be happy,” and ultimately figuring out who you are. This collection features completely new material plus some fan favorites from Caroline's account. Filled with haunting, spare pieces of original art, Light Filters In will thrill existing fans and newcomers alike.it’s okay if some thingsare always out of reach.if you could carry all the starsin the palm of your hand,they wouldn’t behalf as breathtaking

"This is probably the best poetry book I have read. I'm not a big fan of poetry but this book definitely got to me. Such an amazing journey through her words, I definitely loved how she chose to describe certain things. Beautiful book!"

"I’ve never been someone who reads 24/7 but this book changed that. I picked it up in the store and I was immediately glued to the book. I walked around the store with my eyes constantly looking at the book might’ve ran into some things haha. "

"I give this book 5 stars because the first time I read it I would’ve given five stars. This book helped me get into enjoying poetry possibly even the first poetry books are truly loved and related to. Now I’m at a different point in my life rereading and would’ve given it four stars. But I don’t think it’s fair to the book to change my rating because I’m at a different era in my life."

"just as the author describes, these poems describe what it means to be human. it is very mental health heavy, which with everything going on could not be more important."
