From very personal pieces which talk about bullying, depression, and abuse, to more uplifting ones that celebrate overcoming adversity, falling in love, and intimacy, 'Queen of Hearts' opens with a poem written when Karina had just started high school. Each chapter explores and remembers the transitions and the little things that take place while becoming an adult. This book doesn't shy away from the gritty side of life, especially when talking about womanhood. It also highlights experiences related to identity, sexuality, and reminds us it really does take courage to be vulnerable.
