More Rose Than Human is a unique collection of poetry and prose, accompanied by original illustrations (by Ramdey) that bring each word to life. The rose and her thorns serve as the central metaphor of this book, representing the delicate balance between trauma and healing. Just as the rose needs both light and darkness to bloom, this collection explores how we, too, require both joy and sorrow for growth.
The book is structured around the three secrets of the rose, each secret forming a chapter that serves as a path to healing and empowerment. Through these chapters, Ramdey offers simple yet profound life philosophies hidden in plain sight—lessons that can be applied to everyday life in the quest for self-love, healing, and resilience.

The themes explored in More Rose Than Human are both personal and universal. 
The book tackles important topics like colorism, embracing femininity as a source of strength, and learning to heal gracefully. Through powerful, modern poetry, Ramdey encourages readers to embrace their true selves, to honor their scars, and to see the beauty in their vulnerabilities. This collection is an invitation to find strength in both the light and the darkness of life.

More Rose Than Human is for anyone who has experienced the thorns of life and is ready to carry them with grace. It’s a book for those who seek to heal, empower, and become the person they were always meant to be—strong, resilient, and beautiful, just like the rose.
