"We Don't Get to Write the Ending by Aleathia Drehmer is a powerful collection of intimate poems deftly exploring all aspects of relationships, from bittersweet beginnings to resigned endings and everything that might exist in between. The poems are at times joyful, at others harrowing, but always coming from a place of recognizable truth."—William Taylor Jr., author of A Room Above a Convenience Store
