The pain of heartbreak is ever so tormenting. Those sleepless nights, the time we close our eyes hoping it’s a nightmare we are soon to wake up from, and the sad truth of knowing we lost someone we once held so close to our hearts. In attempts to heal from heartbreak, we hope for someone to tell us that it will be alright, that it too shall pass, that the pain will subside and we will again collect our broken pieces and goes on. We heal differently, but a good book will give you a brighter perspective on things, and it can help you see the light at the end of the tunnel. Here are some books to soothe the pain of heartbreak.
