Chasing Brooklyn Review

Chasing Brooklyn Chasing Brooklyn by Lisa Schroeder

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This was my first encounter
with a novel in verse.
It opened my eyes
to my own possibilities.

Beautiful words describing
grief
and how it's different
for everyone.

Beautiful words describing
the journey
to overcome that
grief.

Beautiful words describing
a path to healing
and unexpected
love.

And now, the book complete,
I have my own stories
floating
flittering
forming
that must be written
I may just try
my own
novel
in
verse.

  1. A beautiful and lyrical review of a beautiful book. This was my first novel in verse, as well, and I loved it!
