I really enjoyed this book, as it was just what I needed to read after my Mother’s unexpected passing. I picked it during a giveaway because I was in a down/confused sort of mood, not knowing what to expect. I found it enlightening, and liked how the suggestions at the end of the chapters made sense. It showed how to do some of the suggestions like the list about your loved one. I also found it reassuring that everyone grieves in a different way, and we all take different amounts of time to get there. Ms. Boyd did a service to those of us who are grieving and not necessarily knowing what that’s supposed to look like, because my grief is not like yours. I would recommend this book to those who have lost a love one as it was reassuring to me, and helped fill the void when I had questions/thoughts that I couldn’t ask the one person I’d always turned to when something unexpected has happened, my Mom.
