Description
An intimate collection of poetry on grief, loss, and healing from bestselling poet and author Courtney Peppernell, Thinking of You—a companion piece to Peppernell's The Last Poem—offers solace, reflection, and hope to anyone navigating heartbreak and finding their way forward.
Throughout life, we will all experience a great deal of grief. Whether through the loss of a loved one, the loss of a lifelong dream, or the loss of a picture-perfect life, it will arrive at different times and in different ways, but it will always reach us.
In Thinking of You, Courtney Peppernell takes you along on her own personal journey of loss, weaving stories of truth and fiction seamlessly as she writes her way through grief and healing. With poems of raw honesty, vulnerability, and hope, Thinking of You is both a standalone collection and a beautiful extension of Peppernell’s novel The Last Poem—providing words of comfort you can return to, time and again, as you navigate grief and embrace the path toward healing.
