Down to earth & real

Straight to the point, helpful, not bathed in religious ideas, and gave me a clear path to pull myself out of grief. I really enjoyed this book.

Reality not platitudes

Excellent. I love that she curses. And is so raw and real about the sh1tty things in life. Good vocal speed and tone; very easy listen.

Everyone should read this

Since everyone will experience grief in one way or another, everyone should read this. As someone who I currently experiencing fresh grief I found the submitted letters at the end more beneficial for my current situation. However, Dr Harper provides excellent insight for those going through grief and for those who want to support others during their grief.

Very beneficial, highly recommend.

Deeply insightful

Dr. Harper covers everything in a way that’s caring and considerate while still being uplifting. She explores such a sensitive topic in a way that shines a light on the dark shroud surrounding grief and illuminates it for the life altering human experience that is grief.

Thank you!

This book as many of your other's has been eye opening!

I am struggling but I am getting help too. It is hard work. Thank you so much!

Helpful for many

I really enjoyed this book. It was very helpful on many different aspects. I lost my mother a couple years ago and I’ve been struggling with the grief of that and currently I am struggling with catastrophic health condition. That will get better, but I have to say this book was very helpful and I highly recommended to anybody who is struggling with any kind of grief or loss. You won’t be disappointed.

Love this book and author

Everything in it is really helpful for you or to guide you through the process with someone else

Delves Into the Impact of Grief

This book gets into the neurological effects of grief. Grief goes deeper that just the emotional loss. Your brain changes. I never knew the term, "Trauma Grief", which makes so much sense for certain losses. There is more to unwind when your loss was traumatic/unexpected. and outside of the "norm."

Heads-up. Starting in Chapter 54, she gets into this, "Dear Auntie Faith", thing. It took at least five chapters for me to understand what the heck she was talking about. I thought she was writing a journal/letters to her own relative.

It's her advice column. Each chapter is a letter and response she is reading. It's a different subject for each chapter. In Audiobook format, this was very confusing to figure out. I did skip a few of those chapters if I didn't relate to the issue. What's good about those chapters, however, is the understanding that there are different forms of grief. It's not just death itself, but also grieving family relationships and other endings/transitions in life. Highly recommend.
