Ratings and reviews

I feel doomed. Because i saw the description this book has 176 pages. But when i bought it .. It only have 89 pages. And unfortunately i bought the other book too. Super mad right now. Give me back my money.

Why do it describes the book has 176 pages and i purchased it and mine only have 89pages?? Why the difference. The display mode was 'original displays', no zoom in or out or whatsoever.

This book/collection of poems is brilliantly excellent to the point that I am reading it on a very slow pace to savour every powerful word written. It really does speaks to the soul. And the way the poet writes, damn, it is so pure of passion and I can literally feel the emotion of what the poet is feeling. I will never halt on reading this slowly- haha! I don't want it to end yet! Not now! Not never! I highly recommend this, guys! Give it a read and you'll see what I'm talking about x
