"I have two memories burned into my mind now: You, at first sight, and you, during your betrayal."

From the author of The Ever-Dark and The Mirror, The Mask, and All I Ask comes a poetry collection that doesn't just "explore" heartbreak-it documents it.

The Moon, The Tide, and All I Tried is a visceral account of love at first sight, the cold indifference of losing someone, and the resilience required to walk away. It covers the silence of a phone that won't vibrate, the masks we wear to fit in, and the "Mr. Doodyheads" who make us lose our minds.

Unfiltered, literal, and at times darkly humorous, this is for anyone who is emotionally spoken for by a ghost-and is finally ready to close the chapter.
