Hope and Humiliation: A Journey of Love by Lucy Barton

The book tells the story of Lucy and John, how deep love can feel and drowning at the same time when not fully met and felt by both people. Split between telling the story in small chapters and poetry combined it was a great read, almost like a novel and so well written only completely true sadly for Lucy what she went through in her late teens/early twenties of this trying relationship. Two Minds, was a poem I relate to so much about wondering why you don't see someone so much who's feelings don't match yours and for me captured exactly how a relationship can feel one sided and unmet emotionally by a guy, the book shows how a relationship can make you feel lesser and inadequate and if you've ever been in a draining, second guessing relationship, you will absolutely relate to this book in many parts.
