- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The most realest book ive ever read. I couldn’t put it down. This is one I’m definitely gonna have to go out and buy the physical copy so I can read it Over and over again. Very well written. I’m excited to see what else this author has written.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Sad story, beautiful! I hope the writer is doing well.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love how it traces her life from the beginning to the end, the way the poetry flows seamlessly and I like how I can almost taste Indian curry on my lips and feel the way deep thorns of her hurt from miles away. It is descriptive and full with emotion. It isn't just part 1 or 2 but it is an actual story. Although talking about raped so often hurts me deep inside as I can relate. I have heard about what takes place in India but to hear it so close was almost a little more than than my heart could take. I like how she weaves the words so scholarly words like " it is your voice that undress me" and "I didn't leave because I don't love you but because the longer I stayed I did not love love myself" Her writing feels like home.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Simple yet delightful. These are not sweet little verses, but forceful poems full of life and all that entails: love, suffering, joy and pain.
