I spent my 11th wedding anniversary planning my husband's funeral. If I could just figure out how to make that rhyme, it would be the beginning of a great country song.

Involuntarily single. That's the true story of where Catherine Tidd finds herself just three weeks after turning 31. Widowed with three children under six years old, a rusty resume, no fix-it skills, and no clue how to live life as a widow, Catherine can't help but be a little exasperated with her dead husband for leaving her to deal with life on her own.

Catherine's now in charge of her life in a way she never wanted to be, in a way that would have most of us reeling and numb. But she soon realizes that when you call the shots, you can make pedicures one of the stages of grief - and that moving forward might be more fun in a new sports car.

Her honest Confessions of a Mediocre Widow is a glimpse into the heartbreaking and sometimes humorous world of a young woman who learns it is possible to find joy in an unexpected life.

This is a great book not only for widows but for anyone that has suffered loss such as divorce. It’s also good for family and friends to read to gain some insight into what the widow you know may be going through and how to support them.

Love this book! Such an insightful, honest book.

I’m going into month 3 of being a widow with three kiddos. Catherine is very open and honest with her raw thoughts which is something I want and need to hear. I wish she went into a little more detail with her first “relationship”, besides that no complaints!

I am almost a year out and this book was absolutely fantastic and everything I needed. I almost believe my bookworm of a late husband put this in my path from the other side.

This helped me so much

She outlined so many of the things no one ever talks about. Grief is so hard and grief over your spouse, the one who knew the real you, is literally the hardest. Thank you for writing this. If I were to write a book, it would be so similar to this in so many ways.

100% relatable

My wife passed away a little over 10 months ago leaving me with 5 little kids (14, 11, 8, 5, and 2). Listening to her book makes me feel normal. She talks about so many feelings that I’ve had and I just love listening to it. Her sense of humor fits mine and I love the little sarcastic comments she has scattered through the book. I think it’s an amazing resource for someone who’s a little ways into the journey and has started feeling some of these feelings and has a little experience with live after the death of a partner. It would be a great listen for anyone who has a close friend going through that too.

I've read several widow books after losing my husband in a plane crash 18 months ago. most of them I felt were a waste of time when I finished. this book was very relatable and down to earth. At the very least, I found out I am not alone in a lot of the crazy widow brain thinking I have experienced.

my favorite widow book so far!

It was like she was inside my head. As someone who has lost a spouse, I felt so many of the same feelings as she described in this book. And she gave very good advice on how to handle others as well.

Amazing shared experiences
