Home Body by Rupi Kaur
4.0

I mean how do you even rate a collection of poetry? Rating poetry is like rating someone’s feelings, which you just should not do. When I bought this book I assumed it was a spin on self isolation and quarantining, but now, after reading it - I think she is focusing on our body being our temple - how our body is an actual home. Her poems do not rhyme (which I do not mind) and her style is odd - she writes in a statement form. But I felt like I was reading her diary - reading moments of brain spills, knowledge drops, and her immediate thoughts!
