The raw honesty of the author is truly commendable, making each poem resonate with authenticity.

You never know what to even expect while starting a poem book, and this one got me by surprise!!
It brought out so many emotions in me in only 140 pages, it's a short book, but I read it in one sitting then proceed to stare at my wall for some good minutes because I definitely needed time to process my emotions!not to mention, this one made me cry!
I'm Not a professional when it comes to poetry, I've had recently started reading them but unlike other poems that has many meaning hidden beneath layers of words, this one was surprisingly easy to understand even for whom recently started reading poem!
Every single poem touches your heart differently depending on how much you relate to them.
Some beautiful line art compliments every poem, which made it more aesthetically pleasing.
Poems are mostly about loss, depression, love etc… so be aware of the warnings before reading.
Apologies
I hand out“ I'm sorry’s"
Like “excuse me’s”
As if I am
Constantly
In the way
"I would like to thank Net Galley and BookBuzz for providing me with this digital copy in exchange for my honest review.
I loved this poetry book! It was beautifully written and was done in a way that really pulls at your heart strings. The poems in this book are also very parallel to some of the feelings that I’ve been having lately. I found myself taking several breaks to ponder the beautiful poetry that I had just read. I am very excited to buy the physical copy so that I can go through and put tabs in the poems that impacted me the most.
I cannot say that I’m an expert in poetry as I think this is only the second collection that I’ve read.
This was equal parts heartbreaking and beautiful. Gorgeous illustrations added to the beauty of this book.
There are quite a few trigger warnings here but I will definitely be buying a copy of this for my friend.
"I hand out "I'm sorry's"

You know where length really doesn't matter? In poems like these.
In poems like these, every single word hits a different place in your body and soul. With poems like these, you don't want it to end, you want to go deeper into the story and emotions.
But in the end you always whirl around, trying to patch up the missing links and bring the poem, dare I say, yourself, into the strongest embrace - but you can't. 🫂
With that being said, I simply want to thank the poems that touched my heart, that made me feel heard and understood. Three more lovely poems fresh from my camera roll:
"Sometimes,
I dream.
And sometimes,
I wish I could do it forever"
"Once my lids
Close like garage doors
I notice just how much
I relate to
The forgotten clutter"
"Your arms
Are the walls
To the safest home
I have ever known"
Okay, I will stop, even though I have so many more to share. Jasmine J., I will remember you and your f*cking beautiful words!
Thank you BookBuzz and NetGalley for my first ever ARC in exchange for an honest review! Life F*cks Me Everyday: A Poetry Book will be out on 01/26/2024.
i read her poems in one sitting and it was a lot to process especially by being so relatable i cried a little honestly. it however gets you thinking about how not everyone is brave enough to write about human traumas that the world struggles with more and more every day that’s not like a doctor.
This is the best poetry book I have found in 2024. This book is.really a healing book for me. This collection is way.deep and I can really understand why she wrote this book. The book made me cry because I surely can relate, boy can I relate!! Its not the poetry that hits me hard, is the one sentence phrase she writes. Those have more meaning to me. As the book goes on, she finally finds her happiness. Again I can relate. Thank you for writing this collection!!!
I received a.free.copy of the book and is voluntarily writing a review
Jasmine writes with such finesse. I loved the variety of emotions I felt as I read through each part. Some grabbed my attention more than others but they each spoke with such honesty. As someone who has lost a parent, I was immediately drawn to her part on grief and how we as humans process it. I have nothing but great things to say about this collection of poetry!!!!
I just want to say this had me in tears it was so relatable and it was absolutely beautiful. I resignated a lot with her style and her emotions on the paper this was a super quick but powerful book
I've been trying to read more poetry lately and the synopsis of this one intrigued me as I wondered how much of this book would be relatable to me and I would say that more than half of them were. It was painful to read but I think that for me it was the painful realisation that this is something that I relate to, rather than a bad kind of painful, I recommend this book to anyone who loves poetry or anyone who wants to get into reading more poetry. The writing was beautiful as well as the illustrations throughout.

5 stars
I loved this collection. It hit home many times and it felt comforting. There are many themes within this work, which is kindly pointed out by Jasmine J. at the start. We explore depression, trauma, grief, abuse, love, loss, feeling hopeless and helpless. Stunning. And the kind message from Jasmine J. at the end was also a nice touch and showed care towards the audience.
Poetry really is a healing thing when you feel validated in your own dark thoughts and feelings. And this collection really did something for me with my own current feelings and very long battle of struggling.
Would definitely get myself a physical copy to annotate some that hit me. Happy to have read this and find a new poet to look forward to!
I honestly picked this book for the title and it did not disappoint. This poetry collection covers themes including depression, domestic violence, and grief. Though beautiful, it is definitely not for the faint of heart. It’s very much giving Rupi Kaur vibes. This will leave you feeling so seen but also in tears. I will absolutely be keeping my eye on this author in the future!
Oh my goodness! Some poetry is so hard to understand and pretentious, but this book is simply heartfelt and relatable. I went through so many emotions while reading this, it's so beautiful.
Thanks so much to NetGalley for letting me preview this poetry collection
