Hi, I’m Cheyenne

A free spirit trapped by the mind of an overthinker. I'm constantly yearning for balance—more time for travel and creativity while maintaining equal parts stability. I'm often a walking contradiction. This is my outlet to talk about those things I love and those things that are on my mind. Join me on my journey to live a pretty rounded life.

The Inside Voice #134. 🌿Healing doesn't happen

The Inside Voice #134.
🌿Healing doesn't happen overnight.
Bruises take days.
A cold lingers for weeks.
Broken bones take months.
Broken hearts feel like they'll never go away.

But the scars, they're here for life.
A permanent mark of damage done,
Though scars won't always carry the pain.

What was once red, angry, and bleeding
Becomes more subdued.
Even once healed, they remain a subtler reminder of the hurt you once knew.

Book #18 in 2025

For the story of the final Bridgerton child, the book seemed to veer away from the usual formula. So much so, that you even found yourself wondering if things would work out in the end this time! I enjoyed the change and thought it was a great way to end the stories of all the children.

Book #17 in 2025
.

I had high hopes for this little novella and was honestly let down. My first thought was "that's it?" when it was over.

Graveyard shift follows a unique cast of characters who meet up nightly in the cemetery of the local abandoned church for a smoke break, when one night they discover a freshly dug grave. It had the potential to be really special if it went just a little further on some of the ideas it started toying around with (Insomnia, human studies gone wrong, etc), but it just didn't get there for me.

Sure if you hike with me I'll be sighing and staring at the big beautiful scenery, but I'll also be moseying along looking at pretty little details.

The Inside Voice #133
🌿It wasn't a shock of lightning, bolting from the sky and earth-shattering thunder when the forecast didn't even call for rain.
It was more like coming home, finally safe from the storm. Where you could warm yourself by the fire and forget about all the pain. 🌿

This quick romance read follows Fern Brookbanks in two phases of her life. In present day, she grapples with the loss of her mother and being left with her struggling lakeside resort.
In the past, we see Fern wanting to live her own life in the city, where she ends up spending the day with an artist named Will - who shows up again unexpectedly in the present.

This was a quick, enjoyable romance book with an interesting cast of characters who helped make it special. This would be a great vacation read!

Book #15 in 2025

This was one of my favorites in the series! Hyacinth is such a fun character that isn't talked about nearly as much as Eloise (probably due to the show) and I enjoyed the storyline surrounding the journal and Lady Danbury that helped bring her and Gareth together in the end.

The Inside Voice #132.
🌿I am a graveyard of unspoken words.Here lies my hurt. Gone, but not forgotten is the weight I carry.Self advocation buried in the dirt.
In loving memory of all the opportunities I had to speak. Rest in peace to a life without rumination.When the fog settles in, it starts feeling bleak.
Laid to rest, now we must come to termsForever in our hearts are the things we never say Eating at us like the hungriest little worms.
Here in the graveyard of unspoken words🌿

"Memory did not reveal the past, but some vestige of it, coloured by what happened later and what is happening in the present moment. Memory is at the service of our will. We hide from what it's inconvenient to remember - or unbearable to acknowledge. How else could we live with ourselves? " - The Darlings of the Asylum

Book #14 in 2025
.
.
This book was slow to start for me but really picked up after the first quarter. It follows Violet, an affluent woman in the 1800s who longs of being more independent and pursuing art, rather than pursuing marriage like everyone expects. When she finds herself in an asylum, she does not remember the events that led to her being there.
Overall I enjoyed the book but there were a few things I hoped were going to play out differently based on the themes of women seeking to be independent often being viewed as crazy.

The Inside Voice #131
🌿Our parents were hurricanes,a crashing of waves against rocks, pulling debris onto the shore.

But their sinking ships brought a new era of sailors who build their ships differently than before.

We are calm waters,sunshine glimmering on the surface,rippling trails left by relaxed fingertips.🌿
