Fictionwithfeeling Stories

Book about a young teenage girls trauma and her healing journey. How she managed to escape her situation alive and tell someone.

This book is emotional, and kind of like Girl In Pieces by Kathleen Glasgow or 13 Reasons Why.

After a breakup and a financial freefall, Nina starts over in a new city with nothing but a pull-out couch and a chipped coffee mug. But when a modest raise offers her breathing room, she begins reclaiming the pieces of herself that got lost in survival mode. A quiet, defiant story about self-worth, small luxuries, and the cost of being seen.

some stories don't scream. they sigh. a collection of slow, aching love stories - written in fragments, told in silences. each chapter stands alone, yet all are stitched together by the same thread: a heart that loved too deeply, too quietly, or too late. expect soft touches, held breaths, and the kind of longing that lingers long after the page ends. these are the stories that don't beg to be remembered. but somehow, you do.

...On the day I died, everything came to life.... After Genevieve's suicide attempt leaves her in a coma, she wakes up-not in heaven, not in hell, but in Limbo... with a weed-smoking, jazz-playing, truth-telling spirit guide named Ryan. Together, they stroll through the soundtrack of her life-memory by memory-unpacking love, trauma, silence, identity, and everything in between. As she confronts her past and the weight of her pain, Genevieve must make the ultimate choice: Will she let go and die-or fight to return and finally live? In this emotionally stirring and soul-rich tale, Anesa Laneigh explores the depths and layers of womanhood, healing, and what it means to find yourself when you've already given up. A little trippy, a little funny, and achingly real-this is the story of a woman reborn.

Janiah knows how to stay quiet. She knows how to lie about tutoring, how to leave before the yelling starts, how to disappear into city streets that forget you as fast as they swallow you. Her mother, Tamika, is working nights, smoking promises thin as air, and holding together a life that's already cracked at the seams. Their apartment is more ghost than home. But silence doesn't mean safety-and Janiah is starting to wonder what happens when the quiet turns into something permanent. Something you can't come back from. Set in a crumbling city where hope is a luxury, The Silence Between Them is a raw and intimate portrait of a mother and daughter caught in the space between survival and love, regret and resilience. Every skipped word, every unopened door, every burnt piece of toast-this is the story of everything they can't say... and the cost of what happens when they finally do.

In the hush of midnight, Sage navigates empty roads with a heart quietly aching for Langston-the man healing in solitude at home. This moody, intimate drive becomes a reflective journey of desire and quiet resilience, each mile heavy with longing and the fragile thread of hope.
