Review
Laala has an inherent sense of beauty and timing coupled with wisdom beyond her years that serves not only to mold incredible word sculptures but also the very thoughts of her readers. --L. Stephen Meck
There is a definite candor in Laala's poetry, but a wonderful gift as well for her readers. Her words are full of insight, compassion, and beauty. A beautiful collection. --Lisa Zaran, author of 'The Blondes Lay Content'
Laala has the ability to take common emotions and shape them in a way that is both honest and original. Her works are incredibly passionate and very real and altogether unparalleled. --Kyle Lanter
