Truly inspirational, great read and many poems I will cherish forever and continue to read to myself and others, thank you.

I loved so many poems in this collection. Usually I find the odd line in an entire book that resonates with me - here, I found something to relate to on almost every page. I would have highlighted the heck out of every line if it weren't for the fact that the format didn't allow it (minor complaint, but the ebook was designed so that the poems were impossible to highlight, like the kindle recognised them as images rather than words? A bit frustrating, as I like to highlight poignant lines in poems and there were so many things I'd have liked to be able to find later.) The collection was broken up into sections, with all the poems in each section pertaining to that subject. My favourites were 'The Cosmos' and 'The Storm'; the poems about stars and space were so beautiful. I did however find that this started to get a little bit tedious by the end as so many of the poems dealt with such similar ideas, they felt very same-y, if that makes sense. I also caught the odd instance where the exact same line was reused, and while I understand the temptation of recycling a line you're particularly proud of, I also feel it pulled me out of the poem a little as I knew I'd read that same line a few pages before. Overall I really liked this collection, there were some beautiful poems and the speaker definitely conveyed some wonderfully raw emotions within her works. Would recommend.

I love this gem of a book - it speaks to me in many ways ! It helps me take a long deep breath and appreciate all that is good in my life !

I bought this book to my daughter. She love it. Lots of poems.

This made me cry. I found myself a dozen times over in this book and it made my heart ache. This will go on to be one of my favourite books of poetry, re-read again and again in years to come.

I was underwhelmed by this poetry collection. I was expecting a constant rush of feelings when reading but that didn’t occur always. Your Soul is a River is such a compelling title. I was instantly drawn in. My main criticism is that the poems became repetitive in some sections as if I was reading an alternative version of a poem in this collection. However, at the same time, I rather loved the repetition of some of the motifs, but I'm conflicted so it's 3 stars for me.

I discovered Nikita Gill on Facebook. Someone posted an image of one of her poems. There was no title and no author's name. I had to hunt her down via Google. I bought this book on Kindle and pre-ordered the paperback version of "Wild Embers" which has now arrived. And then I found her on Twitter. For personal reasons I won't go into here, I have been in Trauma Recovery for over a year. When my heart gets too heavy and too dark, this book has been a light guiding me back to myself. It has strength and softness and wisdom and light in its pages. It won't be everyone's cup of tea (what is?) but I found it healing and restorative.

O texto é uma delícia de ler. Infelizmente, o arquivo do ebook estraga a experiência. O conteúdo não está em texto, mas sim em jpegs de cada página do livro impresso. Dessa forma, a leitura é péssima e a fonte fica ilegível no kindle. Não recomendo a compra enquanto não atualizarem o arquivo.

Det finns ingen som skriver som Nikita Gill. Underbart!

I would recommend this book to anyone who loves poetry, and inspiring words that lift the spirit. It’s an enlightenment book with an emphasis on the evolution of the soul.
