trigger warnings: rape
reread 10 jan 2018: i reread this bc my sister bought me a physical copy for christmas and i think i loved it even more ??? things are pretty rough at the moment and reading this helped a lot ♥
when i first started reading this collection i didn't think i was going to enjoy it as much as milk and honey. it was very relationship heavy at the start and that's just not something i can relate to. however, as the collection went on so many different topics were addressed. the way rupi kaur wrote about her rape broke my heart. there's also really great poems in here about feminism (i love that female masturbation is addressed) as well as rupi's experience of being an immigrant. there's just something about the way she writes because i feel every single word in my soul even on the poems that i can't connect to on a personal level.
