I really like torturing myself.
I can see how this is popular though.If you want to see a sneak peak just go to Noah Centineo's tweets and there you go.
Literally the only thought I had reading this was the same one I had while watching a reaction video on Soft boy/Romantic boy/nice guy compilations on YouTube - Pure cringe. I mean here are just a few examples:

Every night

girls
like you
deserve a love
that makes
it easier to sleep
during the coldness
of night

you are.

I know you
you’re the girl with the broken smile
you’re the woman who searches the night
for peace
you’re the woman
most men don’t deserve
you’re the woman
someone needs

I am not sure whether I am being a bitch or I just have a strong dislike for these kind of poems.But this is the last book of R.H.Sin that I will read.

dark emotional hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective relaxing sad tense fast-paced

Beautiful prose, sincere, powerful, and creative imagery. A manifest to the worshipers of women and womanhood.

I think that if I had read this 3 or 4 years ago, it would’ve really resonated with me but it wasn’t something that I was going through in this moment. Still a good read, beautifully written.

I definitely relate to some. I have always had a love/hate relationship with poetry. I love that it is relatable and real.

This collection of poems left quite a bad taste in my mouth. I had read Part II of this collection last year and quite enjoyed it, but whether my tastes have changed or I was just really in a mood for these type of poems last year, who knows. It's not the short poetic style that I don't like - although, I could envision some of the short poems turning into short stories or paragraphs that would have been more enjoyable; it's more so the actual content of the poems that leave the bad taste. I found the poems to be quite patronising to women - we're all people who have been in toxic relationships, used, mistreated, unloved - and the author is really trying to convey the fact that he himself knows how to love correctly after being in a toxic relationship and we are blind and quite frankly, fools, in our relationships. There were maybe 5 or 6 poems I enjoyed out of the whole collection but was rather let down by this as a whole.

This has everything that a heartbroken person is thinking but doesn't wanna say. Or if you have never been heartbroken read this and you will be lol

While there were some gems of poems, this book was just a collection of romanticization of pain, fake deep poetry, and an author who thinks he's better than other guys because he respects women and doesn't mind a "broken" girl.
