love and you Gretchen Gomez Books
This is Gretchen’s debut novel and boy did she knock it right out of the park! I devoured this book in like 40 minutes and highlighted some of my favorite poems, which I will share with you in this review. When I finished the book I was left completely speechless because the book was just that beautiful. I actually teared up a little bit.To be completely honest, I won’t be doing much of a review just because I honestly feel like how do you put a ‘rating’ on something that is so raw and personal to the author. How do you ‘review’ someone’s life experiences when they are laid out in a format such as this.
Personally, poetry speaks to me on a different level than prose. I’m not sure why. I just feel like poetry is meant to reach into the depths of a person and pull out their deepest emotions. It does this for both the author and the reader.
I have picked a few passages from the book that did reach down inside me and I hope you enjoy them just as much as I did.
These two passages are what completely won me over and made me realize that this book was going to speak to my experiences as well.
“i
learned
my
lesson
when
i
felt
single
on
the
weekends
i was his girl monday thru friday
– balance
i blame this one on me”
“but
i
was
losing
myself
while still trying to be with you.”
Here’s some great advice you can find in this book:
“it’s usually the who and what
behind the love that cause
the
pain.
dont blame love;
blame the who or the what
for lying to you
for making you believe
that love is pain
love hurts
– you should experience love with the right person, no the wrong one”
“the ones who break your heart,
cant repair it either.”
“yank that control back like
the queen you are and make
sure they see that crown
while you take back what’s yours,
your life
your body
your soul”
This was such an amazing read and I will be recommending it to anyone who will listen!

love and you Gretchen Gomez Books Reviews
Gretchen gives every part of her hurt and healing in her poetry. It was like sitting next to her, and having her tell me what happened, what went wrong, what went right, what hurt, what healed, what she was thinking and what she wanted to forget. Reading through "love, and you" reminded me of reading through an old journal one keeps when they are going through tough parts of their lives. It was all raw and vulnerable, yet strong and powerful. Even with the hurt, there was her. And, she was glowing with love. Her journey was beautiful. Her journey was painful. Her journey was hers and it is here, in this book. Can you imagine what her journey would look like, now, that she's let all of these words out? With light and love, definitely a book to re-read, given the emotions and resonations. Lovely. Just lovely.
I remember adding Love, & You to my wishlist as soon as I first heard about it and my interest increased steadily as I read glowing after glowing review. But I have to give credit when it's due and say it was actually Amanda's wonderful review that sealed the deal for me, confirming just how much I would be able to relate to the poems. And she was 100% right. It's been days since I devoured Love, & You in record time, and I still haven't recovered from the emotion overload. Because to say it crudely damn, that girl can write powerful poetry! Wonderful, emotional, raw, beautiful, powerful, strong, exceptional... Trust me, I can keep the adjectives going for a long time if you let me. This poetry bundle is all about her experience with a toxic relationship and her slow recovery from it. The poems are highly personal and it really feels you get to know her a lot better through her poems. I truly admire her courage first talking about such a personal topic and then going ahead and publishing the poems afterwards!
It's not widely known, but I was unfortunate enough to have a quite similar experience with a toxic relationship in the past. The details don't really matter right now, but it did mean that the poems in Love, & You made an even bigger impact on me than they would to others who haven't had such an experience. Trust me, she doesn't exaggerate the effects of such a relationship and its looong and difficult road to recovery. Writing (both poems and other forms) can be a very important form of self-therapy and I loved learning more about her journey through her writing. I wrote some poems myself after my experience that helped me learn about the past and accept what happened, but those just seemed like silly scribblings compared to those shared in Love, & You. I loved both the writing style, form and the way the different emotions are voiced. It's not often that I'm left speechless, but I found myself lost for words after finishing this bundle. Thank you for describing my own feelings and memories so much better than I could ever done!
when i was in middle school there were these tests they made us take 2 or 3 times a year, english was the part i was best at. i could finish in 20 minutes, get a very high score, and do it all without rushing through. that's how i am with this book. i just paced around my kitchen for 20 minutes reading this book and loving it even more than the first 2 time i read it. this book was something i didn't know i needed tonight but it was there and it called to me. i am so glad i listened. usually i don't read 100+ page poetry books in one sitting but i always find myself called to this book and its author, even when this book was just a title. i can read this book and take something different from it every single time
