"Campbell's newest collection serves as a necessary reminder that
whatever we are feeling, we are never feeling it alone." Trista
Mateer, author of Aphrodite Made Me Do It
"There are defining moments in our lives that we often experience
in certain places. It's in these places, that we feel particular
emotions, which help shape who we become. Nineteen perfectly
captures this. Whether you are sad and heartbroken in your bedroom,
thinking about life in the shower or realising that you are
ultimately in the driver's seat of your own destiny, Makenzie's
words create a link between place and memory. For anyone whose
emotions are tied to places, this book is for you." Courtney
Peppernell, author of Pillow Thoughts
" Nineteen is a journey. An exploration. A reminder to put one foot
in front of the other even when it's dark because there is always a
light waiting for you in the distance. These words will reach in
your direction, they will pull you back to places you thought you
had forgotten only to remind you how far you have come. There is
heartbreak living inside of here, but the most beautiful thing is
that there is healing between these pages, too." Wilder, Author of
Nocturnal
"In spare poems with aphoristic lines and short prose segments, the
book speaks to adolescent pain and suffering." Publishers Weekly
