dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

3.5

The poetry was good, as excepted from Rupi Kaur. I didn't expect to be slapped in the face with so much sadness though. I appreciate the author's raw and personal poems about traumatic experiences, but I just wasn't prepared for something that sad, after reading her two other books. Still a nice read. Some poems were absolutely excellent and others were just okay.

Such a fantastic poetry collection. Almost every page is highlighted or annotated. So many of these poems hit home. I am in love with Rupi Kaur's words. Completely in love.

dark inspiring reflective

I don’t think it is up to the reader to rate poet’s work, as it’s a reflection of their soul and their experiences.
But I felt empowered with the last section of this book and the first part really moved me.
Her work is always a nice comfort read
