GoodMorningHeartache

Love Medicine (Revised) | Louise Erdrich

#fiercefeb #goodmorningheartache

Louise Erdrich broke my heart about four times in this book and she started right in the first chapter. It was my first time reading her work and I loved it. A family saga of the Kashpaws and Lamartines most of the time but with each chapter almost a short story from a different person‘s perspective. The writing is phenomenal 😍

Cinfhen, batsy

readordierachel I just read her for the first time recently. She's good at breaking your heart in a very readable way 💔 7y

batsy @Centique @ReadOrDieRachel Both of you have convinced me 💔 Another author I've been meaning to read... This month after seeing all your lovely posts I just want five extra lives for all the reading I need to do ❤️ 7y

Centique @batsy me too! I have calculated there is 50 years of reading in my TBR. 😳😳 I‘m going to take up the ‘bail if it‘s not 4 stars or better‘ strategy! 7y

Lab Girl | Hope Jahren

I'm listening to the audio version of this wonderful debut memoir and Jahren's voice sounds infused with #heartache, as if it's always on the verge of breaking. In one great section, she describes writing a college English thesis where she analyzed uses of the word 'heart' in David Copperfield. Then in describing a particularly stressful job at a hospital, she quotes Copperfield-heart quotes at the perfect moments ❤️💔 #fiercefeb @batsy @Cinfhen

BookishMe I LOVE her book! Didn't know she narrated the audio book *scrambling to check Overdrive* 😉😉 7y

Billypar @BookishMe She's awesome at it- matches the narrative perfectly and it adds this extra layer of emotion. I'm not even halfway through and I'm loving it so far! 7y

Billypar @BookishMe Nice! Hope you enjoy reconnecting with it 😃 7y

batsy Sounds lovely and it's kind of been on my radar 💚 You've convinced me to read it 7y

A Fine Balance | Rohinton Mistry

I absolutely adore this book. I read it years and years ago and it has stayed with me. Four lives come together in India during the 1970s. Powerful and emotional. It was recommended to me by my baba. #goodmorningheartache #throwbackthursday #fiercefeb

Come Away with Me | Karma Brown

#FierceFeb #GoodMorningHeartache Tegan loses her unborn child in an accident & is angry at her husband Gabe's role in it. Overcome by grief & loss, three slips from their "jar of spontaneity' leads to a trip to Thailand, Italy & Hawaii to heal the heartache. This book that I reviewed a few years ago had me ugly-crying & still makes me a bit choked up thinking about it. A beautiful story that surprises & shows the power of love, loss & healing.??

Cinfhen, batsy

Reggie This sounds great!!! 7y

batsy Sounds emotional but also possibly hopeful 💙 7y

DebinHawaii @Reggie @batsy It is a good book. Even though it is a tearjerker, it does have a hopeful tone. 📚👍 7y

Tell the Wolves I'm Home: A Novel | Carol Rifka Brunt

I'm always trying to get people to read this book. It's a poignant, bittersweet story of a girl coming to terms with the loss of a favorite uncle in the late 80s. It's a really beautiful story and definitely a tear-jerker. 😢❤
