"An emotional journey"
After seeing this artist perform live, I had to buy at least one of her books. As soon as I rec'd the book, I did not put it down until completion. Sugar Lumps and Black Eye Blues sent me on an emotional journey with an honesty that I have not encountered in a vey long time. This is the first book that this author has published and I plan on buying the additional 3 books very soon. For those who enjoy true poetry and story telling, this is for you.
"Gift for words"
Ms. Hawkins has a gift for words. Her poetry is truthful, emotional and can resonate with anyone. She has a passion for the truth and it literally jumps off the page. It was a very refreshing read!
"Definitely worth the purchase"
This is a great read. The author puts herself out there, takes risks, and is able to speak to both the individual and to the universal. Definitely worth the purchase!
