milk and honey reached number one on the New York Times best-seller list and by 2017 had sold three million copies, making Kaur one of the best-selling poets in the world. Furthermore, I just can't ignore the more popular pieces she has claimed as her own when any avid reader can tell you they are not. Let me start off by saying that I am not a fan of Rupi Kaur's milk and honey; HOWEVER, being the forgiving person that I am, I have decided to give her work a second chance.

In a nod to her mother tongue (Punjabi), Kaur avoids capitalization and the use of any punctuation other than the period. kaur is attempting to give a voice to women through her work, which she claims she is doing, then she should also acknowledge everyone who has "inspired" her. As a 21-year-old university student Rupi Kaur wrote, illustrated and self-published her first poetry collection, milk and honey. The book is divided into 7 sections reflecting the life cycle of a flower, with chapters titled: Wilting, Falling, Rooting, Rising, and Blooming.A modern alternative to SparkNotes and CliffsNotes, SuperSummary offers high-quality Study Guides that feature detailed chapter summaries and analysis of major themes, characters, quotes, and essay topics. With the exception of apostrophes to indicate possessives and contractions, there is scant punctuation.

I understand I can change my preference through my account settings or unsubscribe directly from any marketing communications at any time. But my present day self has matured and moved on from teenage/college-age angst, so I think I've outgrown this type of sentimental writing.It's not a style I enjoy at all, and the entire book just felt too Tumblr and cheesy and simplistic. Lo que diferencia este libro a los demás de poesía contemporánea es que no se enfrasca en nada, toca temas muy variados. Just adding my unwanted two cents and personal preference here, but I would have been good had she stopped after 'and the bees growing jealous'.
