Heartsick: Three Stories About Love and Loss, and What Happens in Between by Jessie Stephens

dark emotional reflective sad medium-paced

3.75

My Mum encouraged me to read this after going through my first breakup, and it definitely hit a lot of the right notes, but while the stories told very unique experiences of grief, they were all from the perspective of people who'd been rejected, not the rejecter, which was what I'd wanted to read about. There's a specific pain that comes with making that call, and I guess I just didn't want to be reminded of how much it can hurt to be on the receiving end of that.
