About this listen

I seem to be your new favorite novel.
One that keeps you up at night,
turning my pages.
Fingers lingering on me so you don’t lose your place.

In her first collection of poetry, Lili Reinhart explores the euphoric beginnings of young love, battling anxiety and depression in the face of fame, and the inevitable heartbreak that stems from passion.

Relatable yet deeply intimate, provocative yet comforting, bite-size yet profound, these beautiful poems are about growing up, falling down, and getting back up again. They capture what it feels like to be a young woman in today’s image-obsessed world with Lili’s trademark honesty, optimism, and unique perspective.

Accompanied by striking and evocative illustrations, the poems in Swimming Lessons reveal the depths of female experience, and are the work of a storyteller who is coming into her own.

Critic reviews

‘Reinhart is committed to authenticity…and candid about her battles with anxiety and depression.’―Harpers Bazaar

‘There's a reason her fans feel they know her. She's been outspoken on various platforms about deeply personal topics.’ ―Glamour

‘Reinhart is a force to be reckoned with.’ ―Who What Wear

‘She's a breath of fresh air. Navigating her way through fame her own way, not for a second trying to be anyone she's not, and showing every one of her millions of fans that it's OK to be who you are. In fact, it's the only way.’ ―ASOS

The content of this felt so vunerable and real to me as a true insight not only into her mind but the struggles that so many people go through, I was at first frustrated that their wasn't more structure but I think that is how it is meant: randomly occuring thoughts that have significance even on their own.
The narration is soothing which was not a surprise as many who will read this will also be familiar with Reinhart
