This House Remembers Every Grief by Eugene Miller

This was a heartbreaking poetry collection that reads in a poetical storytelling way, easily flowing through the story of a relationship falling apart with your best friend, losing your love, how cruel they can be treating you and how it can break you. The book was set through parts, Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. Exactly how grieving a relationship goes, each part was a long poem set out in stanzas that flowed so well to tell the story and convey the emotions felt. Being told from a guy's perspective as a girl reading who's friends with a guy who went through a similar situation with an old friend of ours it really hit me hard. Leaving me even more glad I stood up for him against someone spreading lies, knowing I was always there to listen especially if he went through all the ways emotionally for a guy written about here, it was so beautifully honest even about the worst part of a relationship, the fall out and I know many guys if they struggle to open up, could sit and feel with this collection like they are less alone in how they feel.
