rupi kaur is one of my favorite poetry authors, so it's not surprising that i loved this book. Iive loved all of her books so far. i just read it in one sitting which took roughly 30-45 minutes. i thouroughly enjoyed it! i tabbed and highlighted my favorite ones (which were a lot of them). i definitely recommend if you like poetry.
While I may have read Rupi Kaur's ‘poetry' around social media for a while now, it's my first time reading an entire collection. I personally felt they were more of intimate thoughts penned down than actual poetry... but then again, is it possible to confine a free form of expression to certain expectations?
That aside, I'm a bit conflicted rating this poetry collection as although there were some ‘poems' that deeply resonated with me, some others were a bit harder to digest as I wasn't able to connect as much.
