This book was so beautifully written. I had someone close to me ask me if I wanted to read it and I actually was kind of hesitant- only because I thought it was a self help book on grief which isn’t something I’m personally struggling with right now (Thank God). I wanted to be polite to the person who offered me the book + I know of the author so I thought that was neat too so I decided to give it a go.
Wow, it is so beautifully written. It didn’t feel like a self help book at all. I read it in I think 4 days. The book really helps you rationalize, mentally process hard things, communicate, and grow through the hard stuff. I personally wouldn’t of processed my grief in some of the ways described in the book- but that being said, I haven’t walked in their exact shoes so I can’t say that for certain and everyone does grieve in their own way and that’s okay, but because I personally grieve differently- it didn’t hit home for me/relate to me quite the way a 5 star book would for me which is why I gave it 4. While I’m not struggling with the exact challenges presented in the book, I do have my own problems and the mindset of the book still applies to any hard decisions in life so it was helpful in that aspect too!
an amazing read, beautifully written and talks about how the hard things are often the beautiful things in life too.
