Pre-release, Joie de Vivre has received much praise:

"I loooove this book. Love it! So strong, great flow. A book that someone will pick up many, many times, to be reminded of the beautiful struggle life is. Emotions are borne, but in a most artistic way. It is a victory for the individual that is all of us." Jerry Smaldone, author of Fatto a Mano
"Roseanna invites the reader to peer through her lens as she shifts her gaze from Colorado landscapes and urban settings to broader contemplations. Her refusal to romanticize combines with a rare tenderness that explores the sometimes-brutal world of deep joy." Leah Rogin, author of Burying Norma Jeane
"There is undeniable magic in this remarkable collection of poetry." Carolyn Reed, author of Maze Bright & Founding Member of Denver Union of Street Poets
"Frechette's poetry seemingly jumps off the page and into the hearts and minds of it readers in this collection of her poetry spanning decades. The same electricity that she has brought to Denver's art community and beyond is captured like lightning in a bottle in the vibrant spirit present in these poems." Brice Maiurro, Editor-in-Chief, South Broadway Press
