Self-Help & Books
In the last few years, but especially in the last two decades, autofiction has garnered much attention and criticism. Some people absolutely love the style and others completely loathe it.
Love it or hate it, it’s a practice many authors engage in when they first begin to write, and return to, once they master their writing.
Since a young age, when I felt alone and found myself without friends and companionship, I turned to fictional books. They were my constant solace as they depicted feelings of loneliness, alienation, and isolation.
It was cathartic for me to be represented in these books although they made me sad, cry, and heart broken!
I have read many fictional books on loneliness and I’ve decided to compile a list of the 10 best fictional books on loneliness for you to read and feel seen too. 💕
Every year, I read a lot of poetry collections – both modern and traditional poetry. As it goes, poetry is not dead. And that fact is a solace to me an avid poetry lover, reader, and writer.
In this instance, I am using the term modern poetry very loosely as most of these collections have been published in the last year up to the last decade.
