Nonfiction: When Breath Becomes Air, by Paul Khalanithi. I was sobbing but also not far removed from my own cancer diagnosis.
Fiction: How High We Go in the Dark, by Sequoia Nagamatsu. The whole book isn’t that way, but one chapter had me wrecked in a way that no other piece of lit has torn me up.
Fiction: The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini. Good god I couldn’t catch my breath for being emotionally pulverized.
Fiction: A Thousand Splendid Suns, by Khaled Hosseini. Even more emotionally pulverizing than The Kite Runner.
Fiction: My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry, by Fredrik Backman. Touching kind of tears.
