This ain’t your typical “get over it” book.
The Up After The Break Up is a poetic and painfully honest roadmap through heartbreak, written for anyone who’s ever loved hard, lost deep, and had to find themselves in the wreckage. Brandon Mello Jones—renowned spoken word artist and lyrical truth-teller—takes you inside the emotional battlefield of a breakup, not just to survive it… but to rise from it.
With raw perspective, personal confessions, and ten real steps at the end of every chapter, this book doesn’t rush healing. It slows it down, holds it in your chest, and makes it something sacred. From sleepless nights to almost-texts, from drowning in memory to finally breathing again, Mello walks with you through each stage—messy, flawed, unfiltered—until you remember that the up was never about them. It was always about you.
This isn’t about moving on.
It’s about moving through.
