Milk and Honey
Milk and Honey | Rupi Kaur
The book is divided into four chapters, and each chapter serves a different purpose. Deals with a different pain. Heals a different heartache. milk and honey takes readers through a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look.

I loved the messages in the collection. So many resonated with me. She has quickly become one of my favorite poets. #poetrymatters

Meh. Not really poetry. Repetitive. Some nice messages sprinkled throughout though.

I have heard good and bad things about this book. I was not sure what to think about this book as it‘s had so many contrive reviews. This book hit home. This book hit somewhere deep in my heart. The connection and relation I had to these poems was more than enough for me to love this book. Kaur speaks of love, pain, and self love. It creates an impact that you are not likely to forget

Such a great exploration into love, loss, trauma, and healing. This book deserves to be read in one sitting and deserves to be read by all women. All women deserve to hear they are extraordinary and to see themselves through the pages of this book.

I don't know what to say about this book...
I just didn't like it as much as I would like to. I know that poetry is a personal thing and nobody can judge it, in fact I'm not saying it's not good, just that I didn't get some of the poetries.
Don't know...

Haven‘t been able to read the past two days because of a killer migraine that won‘t go away. I went to sleep with it and woke up with it. I still managed to clean my house, but my 2y/o has been extra terrible today on top of everything. We‘re gonna be iced in tomorrow so I hope my head feels better so I can enjoy my snow day with a good book. Send me some positive vibes.. 😔😩

BookDragonNotWorm Hope you feel better soon! (Take a video of your 2yo to blackmail them with when they're a teenager. 😉) 2y
KateReadsYA Girl I've not read the past 2 days either! Sorry your not feeling well, get better soon! I'll be starting our buddy hopefully in the next few days! Thankfully we picked a week to get through the first half because life has been busy! Sending virtual hugs. 2y

If the hurt comes then so will the happiness. -Rupi Kaur I picked this quote because it‘s true. It‘s true because if you don‘t feel sad you will never know what it feels like to be happy.

Revisiting some Rupi Kaur to help soothe my soul. I read it years ago and didn‘t really get it but now I do. I guess you have to be in certain headspace to feel it.

Milk and honey is a book of personal flaws. It touches deep into your personal life and heals what you didn‘t know was damaged. The poems listed inside the book are personal, and imperfect which makes the book stronger in the message being sent throughout. It helps your flaws resurrect as beauty and opens your eyes to what may be hidden under a persons skin.

MissYaremcio DOGGIE! (Although it is a cute pupper, I needed a photo of the book...) I needed the recommendation! 4.5/6 2y

1. Haruki Murakami, Wilkie Collins, Neil Gaiman

2. Hmm... 🤔 I'd say Hiraku Makimura (in Dance Dance Dance by Haruki Murakami) - an unsuccessful overrated writer character... 😆 Honi soit qui mal y pense...

3. Tagged. Saw it today when shopping for #jolabokaflodswap and #littlechristmasswap and bought it immediately. Discovered it on here earlier this year... Typical #blameitonlitsy buy... ⬇

Quick read. Although some people do not agree that this is poetry i am fine with whatever it is.This book consists of the hurting, the loving, the breaking and the healing.
What touches me most is that “Every time you tell your daughter you yell at her out of love you teach her to confuse anger with kindness which seems like a good idea till she grows up to trust men who hurt her cause they look so much like you” from the hurting.
4 stars out of 5

Beautiful words of survival, love, violence, and healing. My plan was to only read 1 section of poetry per night, but I couldn‘t help myself and read the entire book in an hour 💛

This has been the hardest part of leaving behind my old life and losing my independence.

I'm hoping one day I will look back from a position of success and be able to give back to my friends and family who helped me when I fell.

I don't know what that "Success" will look like yet, but one day I hope to look back on all these struggles and be proud again ❤

CBee You will! Just be gentle with and kind to yourself. These things take time ♥️ 3y
TrishB Small steps ♥️ 3y
RaeLovesToRead @CBee @TrishB Thank you both ❤😊 Onwards and upwards, hopefully! 3y
DaveGreen7777 The fact that you are concerned with giving back to the people who are helping you shows how kind and thoughtful you are. Please don‘t be too hard on yourself, everyone needs help sometimes. I hope things pick up for you soon! 😊 3y
RaeLovesToRead @DaveGreen7777 Thanks, Dave. That means a lot. I've come a long way from where I was, but I'm looking forward to being useful again! 3y

Second time round for this book. Still great, but the audio does sound a bit more sensual/sexual for work setting it might just be in how she reads it with some heavy breathing and long drawn out sentences. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

the next time you
have your coffee black
you‘ll taste the bitter
state he left you in
it will make you weep
but you‘ll never
stop drinking
you‘d rather have the
darkest parts of him
