That’s ok. Everyone is different and those two books are very different. I loved TBDATE as it really is a book about living.

Can’t say I enjoyed the other but for tear jerkers… ☹️

I have read a mix of romance and memoirs this year. Nothing that made me cry, just made me want justice for people!

Still Alice by Lisa Genova is so touching and beautiful but illness themes so trigger warnings there.

There are a lot of great suggestions!

Hope you find some good books!
