Updated review (2022): This didn’t resonate with me quite the same (likely because of the audiobook format, but also because of where I am in life) as it did when I first read it, but it is still a delightful way to spend an hour.

Original review (2017): It took me an hour to read this. That should say it all.

I've had this book on my shelf for years. I haven't picked it up because poetry isn't always for my current mood and because there has been so much parody and satire around Kaur's poetry that I was kind of turned away from it. Well, having read it, I'm kicking myself for waiting! So many poems resonated with me. Made heart race and think "hm, maybe I'm not as over that as I thought". It was a reflective experience. I felt both seen and heard, and by the end I felt confident. I don't often mark the pages of my books but I added tabs to all the poems I thought I would like to revisit in the future.

I really enjoyed Milk and Honey.
