Poor deer by claire oshetsky
I picked up this book on a whim during my last book shop visit and after it reading it, it feels like fate. its a powerful story of surviving grief and trauma unlike any other I’ve come across. as an adult, it can be really difficult to understand why things that happened in your early childhood happened at all. this book really captures all of those complicated feelings.

A Garden of Creatures by sheila heti
Just read this and cried slightly. A beautiful children's book by Sheila Heti about grief. Very pretty illustrations too. My favorite quote: "Life is glad to have known all of the creatures who came here. Everything that has ever lived leaves their traces on the earth. And the heart keeps forever what it once loved".

what my bones know - Stephanie foo
it's about c-ptsd, i'm about 70% through it and i'm sobbing. it touches a very tender part of my heart, not just because of personal experiences but bc it's such a valueable piece of work (esp. as a psychology student but) for understanding trauma in general.
