Soul Crushing Books to Cry About for Years
Books that leave a lasting impression long after youโve returned them to the shelf. Romance is not required to break your heart - this list also includes fantasy, fiction, and nonfiction compiled by my own heartbreak, friends, and social media recommendations to hurt your feelings. Happiness? Donโt know her, I need to call my therapist for a higher antidepressant dose. [Never take these away from me.]
If any of these novels or authors are problematic in any way please let me know.
