I'm not going to read any books by Rupi Kaur in the future. I didn't enjoy her previous book and I found this one even weaker. Definitely not for me. (

One of the great things about reading is that it opens doors to other cultures and ways of life. This by Rupi Kaur is one of these books in it she deals with grief, love and empowering herself. A unique writing style that took a little getting use to but a good book. (

Fiction. Poetry. HTML:

this is the recipe of life
said my mother
as she held me in her arms as i wept
think of those flowers you plant
in the garden each year
they will teach you
that people too
must wilt
fall
root
rise
in order to bloom
