thebetterstory 's review for:
The Sun and Her Flowers
by Rupi Kaur
hopeful
inspiring
fast-paced
These poems are simple and palatable, and depending on what you ask from your poetry you may find that a good thing. Many of the shorter ones border on trite, but it helps that the entire collection comes across as wholeheartedly sincere rather than manipulative. The rawest poems, and therefore unsurprisingly my favourites, were the ones where the author processed her rape.
