My Bookish Life Book Review: Milk & Honey

       Hello and how are you all doing? I hope you are having a good day. My day has been alright. I have mostly just been at the house cleaning. So yeah nothing has really happened today.

   My husband is cooking dinner and while he cooks dinner I want to try to finish my blog work for the weekend. I am going to get a drink and then I will be starting on this. I hope I can make it a good one.



Title: Milk & Honey
Author: Rupi Kaur
Genre: Poetry
Pages: 208
Rating: 2 stars

Synopsis: Milk & Honey is a collection of poetry and prose about survival. About the experience of violence, abuse, love, loss, and femineity.

My thought's on the book: Ok this is probably going to be controversial but, I didn't love this book. I know it gets a lot of good reviews but, this one just didn't grab me. I was disappointed in that too because I really thought it had potential because it sounded good.

  To be honest I think her words fell flat. That lead to writing that just wasn't memorable and didn't have much of an impact. It was just dull and boring to me.

 There is also drawings in this poetry book. They really don't help the book though because I found them to be pretty distracting. I think maybe they took away from the writing. 
 
 So, for the above reasons I have to give Milk & Honey 2 stars. It just didn't grab me and I found it rather forgettable. If you think you would like it feel free to check it out but it just wasn't for me.

That's it for this reading update! I will be back maybe tomorrow with a review of Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo.  If you have read Milk & Honey, please leave your thoughts in the comments. Also, if you happen to like my content, please give my blog a like and a follow. I will talk to you all later goodbye for now!
