Do you read Poetry books?
A short read filled with words and stuffed with a lot of emotions is my definition of Poetry. It's a light and smoothening read.
Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur is an intense poetry book stuffed with loads of emotions. It's a collection of poetry about love, loss, healing, trauma, breaking, and specifically feminity. The book is divided into four chapters, The Hurting, The Loving, The Breaking, and The Healing. Each chapter has its essence to touch the heart of the reader through the words craved on the pages. Every part serves a purpose, it deals with a different kind of pain, heals an aching heart. The author through her words takes the reader on the journey while laying out a prominent moral, that bitter moment will find sweetness, we just need to look for it.
Honestly, I am not a person who read such kind of books and this was my first time trying a poetry book. At the first I was skeptical but after flipping through the pages I was awestruck by the words penned down by the author. Emotions like pain, heartbreak, could be felt. Although many would say a poem is supposed to rhyme and pinpoint that they are just random words. Who said every poem should rhyme? The feeling matters, the emotions are the core of any write-up, the words are its strength.
The book is not suitable for people going through some physiological or emotional issues. Also at first, it is difficult to understand the words but as the pages flip the words directly connect with our heart.
The book is a package of personal emotion that a woman goes through. It states an onerous time a woman goes through in her life. If you want to read a poetry book and this would be the perfect pick.
My Rating:- 4.3/5
