Books where the main character is going through it, (or has gone through it), and dammit they’re dealing with it as best they can. Romantasy, SFR mainly! But a few memoirs and litfic too. ❤️🩹 Always open to more suggestions ❤️🩹
*Check the TW/CW as some of these books are dark romances. If I’ve left a review, I will usually leave a comment w the info

Only 5% through Pack Darling by Lola Rock, but this one definitely fits the trauma theme. Our FMC is going through it in the beginning 🫣
I will add, thanks for thinking of the list! That book has been on my radar too 👀
I’m obsessed with this book already 😍 your list is amazing, I’ve had been choosing some of my next reads off of this 🤣
Happy to share 🫡 Tends to be a theme for what i read!
