Named after the most vulnerable, introspective, mysterious,poetic & honest hour of the day. “3:40 a.m.” is a poetic take on the constant tug of war between the head & the heart, a forever battle between logic & emotion.

It’s art in its most raw form & in its most relatable state. A book that can’t wait to be explored by its readers, and a book that can’t wait to transform your life.
