Publisher's summary

All change and loss involves grief. In this difficult season of the coronavirus pandemic, understanding how to grieve - and help others grieve - is more essential than ever.

The Grief Club is Melody Beattie's profoundly personal, powerfully healing book to help listeners through life's most difficult times.

Part memoir, part self-help book, part journalism, The Grief Club is a book of stories bound together by the human experience of loss in its many forms such as death, divorce, drug addiction, and the tumultuous yet tender process of recovery. It's a book you need to listen to and share.

Twenty years ago, Codependent No More established Melody Beattie as a pioneering voice in self-help literature and endeared her to listeners who longed for healthier relationships. Over the years, Melody has invited listeners into her life with several more best-selling books - each punctuated with her trademark candor and intuitive wisdom.

Highly recommend

I lost my only son, beautiful boy Ryan 27 in my arms on May 29,2020 and can honestly say I am still struggling but I truthfully feel I received more healing in reading this book then grief counseling and therapy combined.
Now that might just be me but I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone as there is something in it for all that will help you in processing and healing from it.
Love and thanks to Melody Beattie

I Couldn'r Listen for Ten Minutes

How did Melody Beattie agree to let this woman narrate her book? Maybe the woman would do well with Erma Bombeck or a Beverly Cleary book.
And she is supposedly speaking about grief, supposedly comforting the listeners. Obviously, it's not the words that are offensive since Beatty wrote the book. It's the narrator's flippant, tongue on check tone of voice.
Really?
I'm curled up in bed looking for comfort because ALS took my favorite sister away in February. And this idiot reads the book like everything is a joke.
How offensive!
