Mental Health issues, depression, and grief are tough subjects to talk about, let alone deal with. And recently, I’ve either read books, or have heard reader requests for Christian Fiction novels that deal with one or all of the mentioned topics. These stories are mostly found in women’s fiction, but there are several books listed from YA authors, romance, historical and suspense authors.
I’ve provided a printable PDF for your convenience, but here’s the list below. Have I missed any books? Is there a book that needs to be added? You can email me and I’ll add it to the list.
