Welcome to Litsy!

This book is really great and fitting if you‘ve experienced unexpected loss. I wouldn‘t say it fits all kinds of grief, but it is the best book I‘ve read specifically for that kind of grief. I was nodding my head through most of this book in agreement and understanding.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was a Litsy find I picked up after seeing @TEArificbooks post about it. Lovely memoir weaving together the pieces together timeline of the unexpected death of the author‘s husband while they were apart, and her sojourn to Flinders Island three years later when she finally stopped to grieve and heal. #nfn #nonfictionnovember

Grief is a process we all experience - and Weller's ability to talk about it with compassion shines through in this book. I particularly enjoyed the poetry references throughout this book - it brought a distinct humanity to the otherwise difficult subject matter.

Hi, It‘s Me, by Fawn Parker (2024 🇨🇦)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: A young woman goes to visit the feminist commune where her mother spent her final months, while battling grief and demons of her own.

Review: This is a strange book and I don‘t know what to make of it. ⬇️

The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion. It was the way her thoughts ran during the year after her husband died. I didn‘t enjoy it. I kept going in the hopes I would find something to attach myself too. Sadly, that didn‘t happen. 3/5⭐️

I loved this middle grade story of grief and friendships and ghosts. And the narrator for the audiobook did a really amazing job!
