*****ANNOUNCEMENT!***** I’m Glad We Did This by Kelli Lage is available!

Lisa Tomey-Zonneveld
I’m Glad We Did This is a poetry chapbook by Kelli Lage that captures and treasures the transition from childhood and adolescence to adulthood. Memories of simple and delicate joys are scattered throughout this chapbook. Though nostalgia is present throughout this book, the author opens it up for readers to be present in the act of remembering those who have made us who we are. Lage pulls from elements of her rural hometown that highlight the closeness of the relationships described in this book. With just a river dam near her, she takes in nature as much as the faces of those around her, and often intertwines the two. As readers immerse themselves into I’m Glad We Did This they will discover a portrait of friendship that highlights joy found within past and present connections. I’m Glad We Did This is for readers who enjoy small, beautiful, and messy moments of day to day life, appreciate nature and memory, and find themselves moved when sunlight pokes through trees, dew bounces off grass, and rivers curve and skip.

Available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble

What a perfect companion for when you are on the go. I like to load my Fire up with books, especially poetry, for those times when I want to hear poetry by using the voice play feature of Kindle.

Of course, you surely would love the paperback version. Either way or with both, it’s a win!
