What’s the book(s) that ripped your heart out, had you crying on the floor? Could be a romantic heartbreak, an unimaginable grief, or something that made you so angry you wanted to throw it across the room. Don’t hold back!
Flowers for Algernon was the first book that made me sob uncontrollably.

Pet Sematary. Too easy to see my own kids in this situation. Too easy to see myself making all the wrong choices out of grief. It felt too real.

Recency bias, but I have to admit that there’s a moment in Project Hail Mary that had me surprisingly rattled.

A Thousand Splendid Suns left me with a deep ache in my heart for so many days after I finished the book.
The ending of The History of Love had me bawling so unexpectedly.

The Great Alone by Kristen Hannah. It totally wrecked me, and I’m not saying it’s that great of a book. It’s trauma porn for sure. But I legit sobbed throughout the entire book
