Have you ever been brokenhearted and duped? Soothing yourself with ice cream or "beverages," and toxic R&B and other depressing songs? Get uplifted in a better way.

Sun Still Shining: Poems & Songs to Help You Bloom Again takes a departure from the common images associated with heartbreak poetry, and toxic music. Instead, Autumn-Joi offers you rhythmical poetry and songs that give praise to God to help you blossom again. She takes some of her most vulnerable experiences and weaves them into modern-day odes to God.

The poems in the Introduction help to establish the "Who," while poems in the Bridge, like "Sounds of the Village," reflect the breakdown and buildup of the family, and other relationships. The Chorus features songs that will help you to lift your heart to God, versus slashing tires.

These are not your grandmother's poems, they're not even your aunt's, but the rawness and openness will challenge you to consider the fine gift that is Jesus Christ and how He restores and makes us beautiful again, blooming in Him, despite what you endured. These revelations are testimonies of restoration, hope, healing, and forgiveness through God's love. Get over your hurts through praise. Receive this book as a gift of encouragement and hope today!
