Only Love Can Break Your Heart by Katherine Webber centers around the many relationships in protagonist Reiko Smith-Mori’s life. Webber explores the different people Reiko interacts with in great detail and dives into the reasons she keeps each relationship isolated from the others. The framework of the novel’s love story seems a bit cliché: the popular high school girl and the unknown boy. However, the story strays from cliché and gives readers only the idealized portion of high-school love. In doing so, Webber creates a novel that satisfies your cravings for good romance while writing incredible character development, giving you a first-hand look at a teenage girl struggling with loss, love, and her own self-discovery.
