Helium

I loved it!! I was so engrossed in it and couldn't believe I actually finished reading. I'm so eagerly waiting for rudy francisco's next book.

Gives an insight to a more soulful life. A great mind nd a hell of a poet rudy is. If you have to start reading poetry, go for it and if you do read, I guess it's a book giving a wide range of emotions and mindsets all together.

With almost every poem, i could relate. I think everyone else also can relate to these poems! Simply written yet can make you emotional.

Read the entire book in one night! But I can’t get enough of it. Rudy just gets me. My favorite spoken word poet!

This one is really good👍I love the way how the lines keep expressing themselves in a flow : really inspiring with positive vibes all around the words.Even though the lines talk about racism (being a black) and life struggles on a daily basis, everything about the book gives something bright and sunny.I feel so satisfied after reading this one.So worth it👍

Poetry is like a well-written book. Some prefer thrillers, some prefer romance. Helium is a welcome combination of both.The book has four parts that try to take you through love, loss, America, and introduce you to Rudy. Raw. Happy. Sad. Rudy. While it’s difficult to stun with every line and every page, Francisco’s work is a welcome change from the current trend of prose. Some poems will make you think, some make you indifferent. But all of them will make you feel something.HeliumImage – Button PoetryMy favourite out the entire collection is titled ‘Water’. I am yet to read a poem as stunning as that this year. Dive into the book an swim in it slowly. Let the words and pages take you on a journey.If you’re in a hurry, let this book slow you down, let it make you rethink. Pick up this book and gift it yourself and someone you love.It’s three stars from me. (Yes, that’s good. )I downloaded Helium from NetGallery for a free review. I’d heard of the book because I had heard his poems on Button Poetry. Featured Image from Button Poetry. No copyright intended

Deep and Insightful

This book is awesome. I am a huge fan of Rudy. If you really like the poetry, you must have this book

Rudy Francisco é um fenômeno da internet. As leituras de seus poemas tem milhões de visualizações, e sua 'fama' se espalha por todos os países anglófonos.Essa 'fama' é justificada pelo conteúdo de Helium. É possível sentir cada gota de sangue, suor e lágrimas que compoem este livro. Em cada palavra, é visível o sentimento do autor na escrita, e fica escancarada sua dedicação à poesia, e seu desejo de sempre se aperfeiçoar.Helium é um livro raro, daqueles que você termina e quer reler imediatamente. Rudy Francisco é uma revelação da poesia contemporânea, e ler - e não assistir - seus poemas é uma experiência enriquecedora e maravilhosa.

Loved it. So happy.Due to the current postal issues in these terrible times, i received the book a little late but my queries were always answered within a matter of hours and for that i’m grateful. Thanksss.

After watching a few of Rudy Francisco's performances on you tube I was stunned by the passion and beauty of his words. Finding that they had been collected by his own hand into a book these words were no less powerful and evocative. An excellent gift for a partner or yourself

I was so excited when I order this book because I've been wanting it for so long. As a huge fan of Rudy I highly recommend this! The poems are beyond beautiful.
