Every Moment Was You is a heartfelt collection of poems and prose that beautifully captures the ups and downs of life. It speaks to the anxiety we all face, the feeling of not being good enough, the joy of falling in love, trying to hold onto that a love that is slowly slipping away, losing the love you thought would stay, and eventually finding a way to move on. This book resonated with me deeply and offered comfort when I needed it the most. Having gone through many of the experiences described, it tugged at my heartstrings quite a lot. I absolutely loved the illustrations. They added an extra layer of emotion to the poems, making them even more impactful.

I read the translated version, and I feel that some nuances might not have come through perfectly in English. As a Korean learner, I understand that certain expressions are nearly impossible to translate accurately. So, my views of this book is geared more towards its content rather than the actual use of syntax in the prose.

This entire collection feels like a warm hug for anyone who has experienced any of the things i mentioned earlier. Every Moment Was You is definitely something I would always come back to reread every once in a while just to feel that warm embrace.
