Top tier books for the readers who love emotional literature (often with romance as a subplot)
Some of my 5 star reads! As someone who loves to engage with emotionally devastating literature, here are some of my top picks. I love books that explore grief, familial relationships, and expand one’s empathy - which is where I think a lot of these really shine. I love books with a romance subplot, which you will find in most of these recs.
This is a mix of some of my favorite genres spanning literary fiction, historical fiction, fantasy, romance, and memoirs. I hope you can find something to love in each of these, even if exploring reads outside of your comfort zone!
