Poetry Review
Homebody by Rupi Kaur
I always like reading Rupi’s work. She’s not my favorite modern poet anymore (Courtney Peppernell currently takes that) I don’t always relate to Rupi’s topics, but the verses that do strike home, strike home hard.
Thanks for the writing, Rupi! I’ll probably pick up anything you write.
Easy prose, feminist and immigrant musings, and big ideas/feelings composed in small meanings
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5 stars

Book Review:
basically all of Ruby Dixon’s books because I fell down a trash chute
How do I explain to my friends and family that I read all 22 books (plus the 4 honeymoon spin-offs) of the Ice Planet Barbarian series?
It doesn’t stop there. I also read all 17 of the Ice Home Series and 7 of the Risdaverse Tale series before I realized that I have a problem.
Is it my raging breeding kink, the fact that I love a big guy who is kind and good to his woman and only wants to make her happy, or is it that I actually enjoy Ruby Dixon’s heroines and find them to be funny and relatable and oddly enough an interesting depiction of feminism in a hunter/ gatherer society?
I’m not entirely sure. These books aren’t perfectly written. She actually edits some of the characters mid series. And yet, they were my nightly read for almost the entire year. I had to seriously stop and question if it was good for my mental health to only read these books. I concluded that it wasn’t, although, there are also worse alternatives than reading about alien planets…
If you have any semblance of self control then maybe you can figure out what the hype is about these books and get a chuckle out of a couple of them. If you are a binge reader, I recommend steering clear of Ruby Dixon and instead channel your energy into trying to find a real life “blue alien” of your own, as I will be.
For the IPB fans, my favorite couples are listed below in no particular order:
1. Liz & Raahosh (fellow Star Wars girlie)
2. Farli & Mardok (did not expect to like them so much but the new lore was fun)
3. Josie & Haeden (when she got swallowed by the sky claw are you kidding me)
Ice home couples:
1. Willa & Gren (legit beauty and the beast)
2. Ashtar & Veronica (oh so there’s dragons now)
honorable mentions to carving your betrothed a wedding gift. honestly I really liked the sense of community and low key wished we lived that way now.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️out of 5 stars. I can’t deny that they’re entertaining but maybe go read something else.

Usually when we have a problem that is circumstantial, we are facing the reality of life. When we have a problem that is chronic, we are facing the reality of ourselves.

You ooze joy and she is an open wound, shrill and wan, unfucked and unloved.

He really overstates this throughout the books
