Thank you Nasha for an advanced copy of this collection in exchange for an honest review. 

This collection is a very honest glimpse at a South Asian experience that at this point I'm convinced is universal. There is a liminal space many women fall into when coming from families that have experienced great trauma and scars in their past, but in the present do very little to heal from them and grow. Generational trauma is definitely a central theme, as well as colorism, racism, sexism, imperialism. There are also themes of grief, healing, body positivity, growth, and acceptance. You go on journey in this collection of self discovery which is why I believe this reads like diary entries, like the deep dark secrets and truths you admit only to yourself. I highly recommend picking up this collection and spending some time with it.
