emotional hopeful inspiring reflective fast-paced

Poetry is a personal thing and like with 'milk and honey' the poems in 'home body' were a bit hit or miss for me, it often a bit more simplistic than I tend to gravitate towards sometimes feeling a bit shallow.
While I do really like how accessible Rupi's work is and I love how she incorporates illustrations, I don't think I'll read her work going forward.

I didn't like most of her old books but this one shows how much she's grown, how she's become more confident and daring. I personally enjoyed the first part of the book which went into kind of gruesome detail about her abuse and depression.
