When You Ask Me Where I'm Going by Jasmin Kaur

4.0

My dislike for instapoetry and Rupi Kaur almost made me not want to pick this book up. But I have been following Jasmin's insta for a bit, not for poetry, but because of her political views (honestly, she's helped me reconcile so many things bc of her outspokenness on so many taboo issues in the Sikh community it's not even funny).

Boy am I glad I didn't pass this up.

The majority of the poems are simple and powerful (there were some that I did think could be improved but I was impressed overall). As Australian Sikh a lot of them truly resonated with the soul. I have a newfound respect for the genre of instapoetry, one that I did not have before (I'm snobby when it comes to poetry, might as well admit it). I hope to see more of Jasmin's work in the coming years and I hope she keeps writing excellent content.
