Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur

Similar to my previous post, Milk and Honey is a book of poetry surrounding dark subjects such as love, loss, and death.  Kaur brings us in with her basic poetry and interesting illustrations.  It, too, is separated into chapters that have a main theme attached.

Despite, being similar to the last book, it is one star lower.  Mainly because the poetry is all about the author and in the last book, The Princess Saves Herself in This One, there is some poetry about the reader, you.  I would have liked the same in this one, but in the end the book depressed me, but encouraged me to write.  If this person can write this kind of poetry and get it published, then so can I.

Also, the book seemed more like erotic literature in terms of the love and sex subjects Kaur addresses.  Yes, one or two is fine, but seven, eight, nine, ten?

3 stars.
