The Sun And Her Flowers by Rupi Kaur - Spoiler Free Review

Hello everyone! I finished a really anticipated read, The Sun And Her Flowers, and I'm writing a review on it right this moment because AHHHHHHHH. 

 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

 Synopsis:  A vibrant and transcendent journey about growth and healing. Ancestry and honoring one’s roots. Expatriation and rising up to find a home within yourself.
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

Personal review: You guys. I dont know why I waited so long to read this book. Maybe it's because I never really was a poetry kind of girl but now I am. Well maybe I always was and never gave it a shot 😂 Anyways, this book felt so real, I can't even explain it. I'm going through the process of healing, but not Kaur's kind of healing. In this book, she is healing from a breakup, and I'm healing in general. But still, her poems felt so relatable it's crazy. I could even feel her pain because it was so amazingly written. I started the book out of nowhere on a Sunday night, planning to read a chapter of it, but I ended up reading the whole freaking thing in an hour and a half. It was this good! 💖 It really helped me think more about life and growth, and this is a book that I will re-read for sure. I'll even mark the poems that are capable of helping me when in need! It was so good and I wont stop saying it! 😜 If you don't like poetry, I say you give it a shot and you might be surprised! 😋

What I liked the most about the book: Rupi Kaur wasn't afraid to say the words that needed to be said. There was no barrier for expression and I thought it was really powerful. ♥

Other books by Rupi Kaur you should read: I haven't read it yet (but definitely will), her other poetry novel Milk And Honey. Apparently this book helped people with their mental health, so I am very much excited!!!

As always, thanks for reading! 🙈

❣ Noémie ❣

Leah On The Offbeat by Becky Albertalli - Spoiler Free Review

HIIIIIIIIII!!! Okay. I need to talk about this book. I just loved it so much and now Becky Albertalli is one of my favourite authors! Let's talk about Leah On The Offbeat! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Synopsis:  Leah Burke—girl-band drummer, master of deadpan, and Simon Spier’s best friend —takes center stage in this novel of first love and senior-year angst.  When it comes to drumming, Leah Burke is usually on beat—but real life isn’t always so rhythmic. An anomaly in her friend group, she’s the only child of a young, single mom, and her life is decidedly less privileged. She loves to draw but is too self-conscious to show it. And even though her mom knows she’s bisexual, she hasn’t mustered the courage to tell her friends—not even her openly gay BFF, Simon.  So Leah really doesn’t know what to do when her rock-solid friend group starts to fracture in unexpected ways. With prom and college on the horizon, tensions are running high. It’s hard for Leah to strike the right note whil...

Hello lovelies! Here I am with another book review, of course! 🙆 I read another poem novel from the wonderful Rupi Kaur, and I absolutely loved it!

Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills - Spoiler free review

I finished Foolish Hearts during the weekend and now it's time to talk about it! Happy reading. 😋 Rating : 🟃🟃🟃🟃⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 Synopsis :  The day of the last party of the summer, Claudia overhears a conversation she wasn't supposed to. Now on the wrong side of one of the meanest girls in school, Claudia doesn't know what to expect when the two are paired up to write a paper—let alone when they're both forced to try out for the school production of  A Midsummer Night's Dream.  But mandatory participation has its upsides—namely, an unexpected friendship, a boy band obsession, and a guy with the best dimpled smile Claudia's ever seen. As Claudia's world starts to expand, she finds that maybe there are some things worth sticking her neck out for. Personal review : I really enjoyed reading this book!
