This is one of the only books I've actually laughed while reading. It was just so nostalgic.

fast-paced
I enjoyed this collection, but there was nothing that I particularly connected with. It was all just very vague and vanilla.

The short chapters and fast pacing made the story really enjoyable, but it didn't feel "different" compared to other historical-fiction novels set during WWII.

I really love both the messages and the little doodles in all of Rupi Kaur’s books, but I feel like if she edited down her writing, it would be so much better. It is really hard to review something so personal to someone.

A better version of “Verity” by Colleen Hoover. Not much better but just a bit.

I found that I related a lot to a few of the poems, but majority of them fell flat. I did enjoy the inclusion of the little doodles. It mixed things up.

I love this book. It was beautifully written and the descriptions of food made me so, so hungry. It did an amazing job of showing the complexities of mother-daughter relationships.

It definitely started out very slow and was kinda hard to get into, but I’m really glad I kept on reading. I loved the ideas it talked about and how it was shown. Very interesting and something I definitely haven’t read before.

Complicated
Honestly, it was just published fanfiction and it definitely read like terrible fanfiction. Jace is just a little bitch. I hated him and still do. You can read better stuff on AO3 for free.
The whole incest thing threw me off a lot. I don't know why anyone would want to read romance about two siblings. Weird as hell. Also, there were a bunch a phrases that rubbed me the wrong way. Stuff life "mind-rape" "canoodle in my bedroom" "the apple tasted green" and "a voice like raw silk" were so dumb and I just didn't like it.
