Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
4.0

When it comes to poetry, people can be very particular about what they like and dislike. I know a lot of people dislike the 'modern poetry' style. Personally, I think it depends. In this book, it was a definite success. I think the main reason Milk and Honey is a huge phenomenon is because you can sense Rupi Kaur's passion in her poetry. You can feel the pain and sorrow in her words. This poetry book is an embodiment of Rupi's history and survival. I love how empowering her poetry is for all females, I love how it shows her journey through being broken and then healing, and most of all I'm inspired by Rupi and how she had the courage to publish her work and show the world everything she's been through.
