I am very excited and very proud to announce that I will be releasing my very first poetry book, Lightning in a Bottle, with Alegria Publishing, this December!! I have spent the better part of this crazy year working alongside a mentor as well as other amazing poets to write and put together this book that you see before you!

Lightning in a Bottle is a poetry collection filled with dark humor, centered around shedding light on the dark parts of life, as well as breaking out of that bottle we are often put in at a young age. It is a journey through mental illness, heartbreak, identity crisis, toxic relationships, and more. And it is all told through the lense of a bipolar latina, ME!

Pre-sale starts NOW! You can purchase your very own copy of LiaB on ETSY early! Every early copy will be specially signed by me, and will be received before its official launch date come December!

Synopsis Lightning in a Bottle is a blunt and dark humored collection of poems that takes you through a journey of self reflection through the eyes of a bipolar latina. Veronica Lopez unapologetically delves into the dark and light of life, and talks about identity, mental illness, heartbreak, toxic relationships, and empowerment. It is a story of many emotions and many secrets. It’s a story meant for the misunderstood, those predisposed to feel so much, and anyone else looking to break out of the bottle they’ve been trapped inside.
