Self love is about finding a part of yourself worth keeping and learning to build back up from the ruins of past self-hate. My Tears Are Rain discusses the magical journey of self-love in a world so bent on insecurity. With topics ranging from the struggles of mental health to the soul shattering feelings of loss, this book lightly treads on the hard subjects while also giving hope. If you ever dealt with trauma, depression, anxiety or had a bad day, please read this book for a reminder that you are never alone.
