hello everyone!
me and my boyfriend of 3 years recently broke up. he had been dishonest during our relationship and hurt me very badly. i am looking for a book about women in similar situations, experiencing breakups, healing, dealing with trauma and eventually building a better life for themselves. i am looking for something hopeful, something that would calm me down. both fiction and nonfiction are okay.
recently i read “Funny story” by Emily Henry and really enjoyed it, since the main character found strength to move on not because of the new relationship, but because she made new friends, pursued her goals and worked through her grief. i enjoyed the romance too, but appreciated that it wasn’t the main reason for her healing. recommendations don’t have to be romance, any book about a breakup portrayed in an optimistic way will do.
thank you in advance! 🤍
