Description

Special Canadian Edition! There is a quiet power in Bird's voice that commands attention as opposed to demanding it, with a self-assuredness that puts the truth down gently like a cup of water on a glass table. Bird's words have an elegant, lyrical flow that is easy like breath -- an ease that puts the reader in a gorgeous, dreamy state, with an honesty that jolts you awake in all the right moments. Lauren Eden, author of Of Yesteryear and Atlantis(@ofyesteryear)

Editorial Reviews

Doing her name justice, Jacqueline Bird is free and soaring through her truths in writing, spreading her wings constantly to dig through vulnerability, grief, change, and the ups and downs of love. She is a force with a sure grip on her intentions, but never loses her lust to be a breezy traveller, always open to new perspectives and beginnings, while maintaining a steady stream of reflection on all her days gone by. Her words encapsulate the sound of her voice, a journey for clarity of self by way of leaving all that is in her heart and mind on each and every page. Emotive, honest, and a pure delight to read and know. T. J. McGowan, author of We Are Not One Thing (@theeverydaybite)
