I really enjoyed this collection of poems. It was raw and full of powerful comparisons, seemingly going through the pain of different relationship/sexuality-related stages. It had an emphasis on feminism and it was empowering and healing, bringing positivity and a healthy perspective on how to appreciate ourselves and how to support the ones around.

The style flows and it is natural, it just clicked with me, especially the verses. The illustrations are really emphasising the text. Overall, a really enjoyable and highly recommended read that I might come back to. I will check out more of this author's books.

Most poems are surface level, unoriginal, 3-5 lines to describe one feeling or thought with no subtlety. However, I do give an extra star for the handful of poems that are sufficiently well crafted and intentional. In these, she makes use of literary devices nicely and does invoke a strong response from the reader. I connected with the subject material and blew through it in one short sitting, so it felt worthwhile albeit not life changing.
