This. Fucking. Book. RUINED ME. I\u2019m not kidding. My mother begged me to read it, and I was so hesitant, because this isn\u2019t usually the type of story to draw me in. But I read it, and I will never be the same. It purposely starts you off in what feels like the middle of the story, a lot is happening, you have no clue who anyone is, or why it keeps jumping from <em>these <\/em>characters to <em>those <\/em>characters. You feel like you\u2019re missing a lot of context\u2014and you ARE \u2014but for a reason. Pieces of the puzzle are strewn throughout the whole book, and you slowly start to piece it together yourself. Once you do, that\u2019s when the bomb is dropped on your head. It is the biggest, most crushingly painful \u201c<em>oh shit<\/em>\u201d moment. When that moment came, I felt the pit of my stomach drop. The despair set in. It was phenomenal, it was tragic, and had my face and eyes swollen and puffy from hours spent crying so hard people would\u2019ve thought someone died. Guys, I\u2019m serious, I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone, but I would tag a warning onto that recommendation that says \u201cdon\u2019t read this book if you don\u2019t want your heart ripped out, stomped on, then given back with the kiss of a tender lover.\u201d Hence why this is on the top of the list.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Number 2.<\/em><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"40503\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/2025\/08\/04\/books-that-broke-my-heart\/6joey\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6joey.webp\" data-orig-size=\"267,400\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"6joey\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6joey.webp?w=200\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6joey.webp?w=267\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6joey.webp?w=267\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40503\" style=\"width:212px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6joey.webp 267w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/6joey.webp?w=100 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Saving\/Redeeming 6\u2026. Well, really the whole series, but I\u2019m finishing Redeeming now. Guys, Joey\u2019s story is painful. MINOR SPOILERS (skip to number 3 if you\u2019d like). When Joey was in the hospital after a particularly brutal beating from his father, and the doctor came in saying he showed hundreds of scars and damage to his skull from the X-rays dating all the way back to infancy, I felt like throwing up. What broke me further in this one scene alone was that the only way Joey didn\u2019t die in that kitchen was because his 11-year-old little brother, Tadhg, had to hold a knife to the father\u2019s throat and force the father off Joey. This story is gut-wrenching. So gut-wrenching, I can\u2019t even bring myself to be humorous about it. We\u2019re talking extreme physical and mental abuse, sexual trauma, miscarriage, crippling addiction, depression, and suicidal ideation\/attempts. It\u2019s rough, like, really rough. I cry a lot for Joey and Aoife. While the story is about hope, and survival, and fighting through the really bad shit to get your happy ending, Chloe Walsh sure makes her characters, and us readers, really yearn for it. Reading these books, I want that happy ending just as bad as the characters in the book do. I feel the fear that it won\u2019t work out, and the relief when it does. I\u2019m not ok, I\u2019m in pain, I\u2019m exactly where I want to be, submerged deep in the grief that is Joey Lynch.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Number 3.<\/em><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"40505\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/2025\/08\/04\/books-that-broke-my-heart\/1priory\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp\" data-orig-size=\"474,740\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1Priory\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp?w=192\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp?w=474\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"474\" height=\"740\" src=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp?w=474\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40505\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.6405671688474169;width:168px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp 474w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp?w=96 96w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1priory.webp?w=192 192w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Adult high fantasy, Priory of the Orange Tree. I don\u2019t really remember this book being overly sad and depressing\u2026 OVERALL. Let me explain before y\u2019all start thinking <em>\u201cwhat does this woman mean overall???\u201d<\/em> OVERALL, this book was very powerful; it was about redemption, breaking free of societal expectations, and living for yourself. This is one of my <strong><em>FAVORITE <\/em><\/strong>books. It\u2019s not fast paced like I usually like, it\u2019s not romance heavy, and it takes a bit to get to the \u201ccream of the crop.\u201d What it is, however, is impactful. I think about this book all the time, and the feeling of strength it left behind. Now, I understand you\u2019re probably thinking, \u201cCrow, this sounds amazing (maybe you aren\u2019t thinking that but go along with it for my sake), why, oh why is this book heartbreaking?\u201d Well, my dear friends, while this book may not necessarily end sadly, this book is filled to the brim with plot twists. Samantha Shannon very skillfully had me spinning circles with these twists, but it never felt like the surprise turns became predictable. These plot twists\u2026 they hurt, they hurt really bad. It\u2019s high fantasy (duh), but it touches on and incorporates real-world problems. No spoilers here, don\u2019t worry, all I will say is that I was randomly crying all throughout this book. I strongly recommend this book, but be careful, there are triggers in this book. Since it\u2019s fantasy, it may not be as in-your-face as the Boys of Tommen series, but it\u2019s still pretty obvious.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><em>Number 4.<\/em><\/h2>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"40507\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/2025\/08\/04\/books-that-broke-my-heart\/1onyx\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1366,2048\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"1onyx\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=200\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=664\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=683\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-40507\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.6669959498172479;width:175px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=683 683w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=100 100w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=200 200w, https:\/\/birdiebookwormblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/1onyx.jpg?w=768 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>REBECCAAAAA!!!!! <\/p>\n<p>No, seriously, though, I waited for this book as if my life depended on it, and then I read it when it came out. <em>\u201cNo way, Crow! REALLY??\u201d<\/em> Yeah. Yeah. Shut up. I\u2019m going somewhere with this. I tried really hard to not fly through this book because the release for book 4 is insanely far away (not your fault Rebecca, take your time girl, we love you), but I suddenly grew wings and found myself at the end of the book, sobbing. Sobbing hard. The end was tragic, I was angry, devastated, screaming, shitting, and throwing up. I won\u2019t spoil anything, because this is the newest released book on this list, so I know not everyone is caught up, but lord, this one really brought the pain. I want to explain so much more, but I really have to be careful to not give anything away. I guess I can say this: at one point in this book, all it took was two words, and I was <em>wrecked.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>What are those two words?<\/p>\n<p>A simple \u201cNo. Wait.\u201d That\u2019s all it took. The cliffhanger was cruel and devious on Mrs. Yarros side; I ate it up regardless. <\/p>\n<p>(Side note, I absolutely loved Ridoc in Onyx Storm. I need more.) <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n<p>Well, y\u2019all, it was a short list this go around. These 4 books hurt me. They hurt so bad I feel masochistic, because <em>why else would I love them so much??<\/em> Like seriously, if you ever feel like it\u2019s been too long since you\u2019ve had a good cry, these will do it. If you ever feel a little too <em>unfeeling, <\/em>these books will kick that shit into drive. These books have stomped on me, spit on me, made me feel whole again, and then kicked me right in the groin, and I loved them, and I would do it again. <\/p>\n<p>I want to know if you guys also enjoy getting heartbroken by fictional people, or if you\u2019re more like Birdie and prefer something lighter most times. No judgement here (ok maybe a little, but all in honest fun). <\/p>\n<p>Until next time, my freaky friends.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"wordads-inline-marker\" style=\"display: none;\"\/>\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have to be upfront about something.
