Reviews (Average rating 4.8 STARS out of 5)
4 STARS - By Cashana Seals of The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers (RAWSISTAZ.com)
With 24 poems, GIRL CHILD by Lily encompasses a vast array of personal stories told in a poetic form that not only enlighten but also allow readers to feel the depth of Lily's experiences in life. From negative statements about self to heartbreak, Lily covers the gamut in the collection whether it is personal or social issues.
Choosing my favorites poems was not easy because all of them are remarkable. The title poem, "girl Child" talks about a young girl who loses her innocence only to have her heart broken. "Rebirth" tells of a person who has suffered but is able to be reborn and not broken by life's trials. "Let It Be" is about two lovers who were not able to let go of other issues and let love enter their lives. "Simple Hello" is a piece with social connotations on what an individual can do for others.
GIRL CHILD is a beautifully written collection of poetry. Lily uses her heart as a meter in creating emotional prose that speaks to a reader's mind and heart. The poems rhythms are at times smooth and alluring and sometimes sad and realistic depending on the subject matter. As a woman I was able to identify with several of the pieces and I think other women will also be captivated with the style and strength of each of the poems in this compilation and find her messages empowering.
5 STARS - And Still We Rise
Pastor Crissina D. Johnson (TheFathersCall@aol.com), a pastor and author from L .A., CA.
One of my favorite poems is Still I Rise by Maya Angeleou because it confronts the demons who have attempted to defame, crush and destroy me and my African American sisters past and present while herolding our stregnths, beauty and resolve to excell and overcome. Although I am a pastor and would express my experiences with a different voice, Girl Child hits the nail on the head for many Black women in expressing our feelings of pain, rejection and abandonment while we struggle through the craziness to finally come to a place of self discovery, selfworth and peace. Right On sister Lily! Girl Child is blunt, truthful and a page turner!

Everything that I read made me think about everything that I do, everything that I need to do, or everything that I need to stop doing. The book made me feel as if I were telling these stories. And it gave me validation, kinda like I was saying 'okay Im not the only one'. Its a really great book!!!
