Emotional nutrition
Rupi Kaur puts so simply and articulates so clearly the feelings that so many have felt but not expressed. Her poems are so strikingly relatable and honest. Of course, it raises the question about what constitutes modern poetry given the odd structure, almost haiku-like. However, this is subjective.

This poem reads as a self-help or mindfulness book to a certain extent, but it is communicated through beautiful images and flowing language. It covers some hard-hitting topics and describes what it is like to be a woman in this day and age. If you're unsure on whether you'll enjoy it, go check out her Instagram page for snippets of her books.

Loved it
This is a middle grade read that was wrote in a poetry style. Matt is a young boy living with an adoptive family in the United States after the army pulled him out of Vietnam during the war.
This book was heartbreaking at times. Matt has suffered a lot, and he is still blaming himself for the past. He is a character that you want to cheer for, and see succeed. The book also does a great job of showing how other characters were effected by the war, and how that eventually has an impact on Matt's life.
I would consider this book a must read for its target age group.
