2. I Hope You Stay by Courtney Peppernell (The best poetry book I've read so far)

3. Skinny Bitch by Rory Freedman (An oldie but a goodie)

Don't lose hope. Don't be disheartened. Be thankful each day that you are alive. Do your best one day at a time and don't plan too far ahead. Don't be too happy too else you'll weep. Take care of your health. If you're unhealthy, money means nothing.
