Beautifully written poems. An insight into womanhood, the stress of the beauty standards imposed on us, and the body image issues we all go through. Loved the optimism at the end, and the reflection of different body types in Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.

Even though I read this book fast, I’m like this with every poetry book, I find this one more tedious with its “love Poems,” since it just regurgitates the same thing over and over, but maybe this wasn’t my type of poetry and therefore didn’t click with me. If it clicked with others, I’m glad it resonates with you and I won’t judge you for that.
I did however enjoy the illustrations and the color purple is my favorite so that’s the plus side I suppose.

It's not easy to rate or review poetry. But I will say that this is a really neat full experience, with the illustrations and color choices working really well together. Also, I appreciated that the poet included CWs at the start of the book.

Book 1 in the Book Loving Kiwis: Book Pool challenge

CW: Rape, body shaming, body image issues, suicide, eating disorders, alcohol/drug use, emotional and sexual assault.

A poetry collection that looks at finding your voice and feeling confident in who you are. Some of the poems felt more like motivational quotes but there were some glimpses of lovely writing dotted throughout. I imagine it will be a powerful and poignant book for people who connect with the content. Just okay for me.
