The BookViral Review:

Ololade Ejembibia’s relatable and wise poetry makes for an interesting and thought-provoking read. Added to this, the timbre and resonance of her words form verse which is quite simply a joy to read.

Aesthetically beautiful, Ejemdibia’s lyrical creations play with the sound of language in pleasing refrains dressed in the world of today, creating both accessibility and connection. Her insights bring the detail of both micro and macro life into sharp relief, revealing the truth and secrets behind societal convention, power and control. Intense and insightful verse incorporates a diversity of voices and ways of thinking, destabilizing accepted perspectives, and forcing the reader to meditate and consider other views and standpoints.

Ejemdibia owns freedom of expression as she delves beneath the surface, exploring fissures and weaknesses, expressing her own identity and challenging others, suggesting differing perspectives on ordinary experiences, but nevertheless skilfully leaving the reader the time and space to reflect, wonder, and come to conclusions of their own.

With impactful metaphor, alliteration and symbolism, ‘Thoughts in Verses’ makes for a terrifically powerful and mindful collection, allowing readers to emotionally connect, living and breathing the poetry with her. Ejemdibia’s inner voice allows us to explore what lies beyond the limits of practical language, whilst providing a window into the thoughts and feelings of others, exploring fascinating concepts and questions in stunningly written prose.

Both self-aware and empathic of others, she skilfully draws her readers’ engagement towards their own musings and meditations in a rare poetic free-flowing meeting of minds.

‘Thoughts in Verses-A Collection of Inspirational Poems about Thought’ is unreservedly recommended.
