give me the most depressing and soul shattering books you've ever read
Books that are needlessly heartbreaking and depressing. things that make the most desensitized people go 'what the hell' or cry uncontrollably like a baby. I want to be changed as a person while I wipe my tears on my cat.
Examples of what I'm talking about:
- Lovely Bones
- Red Cold River music video by Breaking Benjamin
- 'To Hell...' and '...And Back' episodes of Criminal minds
- Trust_
- Girl in The Basement
- Flowers in the Attic
(girl in the basement is just an example, please no directly biographical or things considered 'exploitive' like Playground)
note: It just came to my head but I've read flowers for Algernon and the only no I'd not prefer is books like that of disabled people
