Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed
"After ending the worst relationship of my life, this book allowed me to cry, to mourn, to completely break down, and finally to feel hopeful and empowered. The last two emotions had been missing from my life for a long time at that point, and it was so good to feel them again." —Angela Greco, Facebook
