My opinions
This book always makes me feel some type of way it’s as if I’m drawn to it every time something happen to me I keep going to it
Sexy read
Nelson captures the color blue from all shades and unique perspectives. I giggled, felt sexy, teared up, got confused, felt joy, got sad, felt sexy again - dissecting essay by essay. She's an exquisite writer. I recommend this eclectic book to all (who wear blue)
