You Better Be Lightning (Button Poetry)

I follow Andrea on FB and am used to hearing rather than reading her. But her voice and heart is entirely present in this gorgeous book of words that are woven together in such a relatable combination of strength and delicacy, rage and love. And I love the feel of the cover! My heart and soul thank you for this opportunity for recognition and growth Andrea...

Beautiful book of words, spacious, wise and humble

Andrea Gibson never fails to let us feel allowed to let the dams break down so the streams of emotion are released, always a beautiful experience to read their work!

Brilliant as always, Andrea is a true legend!

Amazing book

I think this is my favourite poetry book I've read!I honestly wasn't expecting the writing style to be as good as it was!I didn't love all the poems in here but the ones I loved hit me different!!!!Honestly, I can't tell you how good this poetry book was. I can safely say that some of my favourite poems are in this book now!Anyone looking for an amazing poetry read - I would 100% recommend this!These poems also dealt with subjects you don't hear much about - especially in poetry, and I loved how it took simple ideas and normal things in our life and just wrote them down in a completely different way to what we would normally see them as 🥰I'll definitely be reading from this poet again 🥰

The honesty, raw human existence and powerful use of words in Andrea's poetry means they have once more delivered a stunning work.

This beautiful raw writing is accessible, deep and thought provoking. An honour to read their words. So grateful for this magical elemental truth. My nephew recommended them and years later I’m still entranced.Giving us all hope and meaning. Thank you.
