Customer Reviews

Simple yet profound

This is a deceptively simple book, quite easy to read, yet potentially transformative. It offers insights, helps and provocative questions that, if carefully considered, can help one navigate the especially difficult currents of holiday grief. It does an excellent job of normalizing predictable crises related to grief during the holiday season, and offers a pathway through the experience with sensitivity, compassion and wisdom.

A Wonderful Resource

This book is one of the best I've seen on grief--especially at the holidays. The author has gathered thoughtful quotes and draws on experience as a counselor and pastor to offer practical, heartfelt suggestions on dealing with grief. I've given this book many times as a gift to friends who are facing the holidays without a loved one. I highly encourage the use of this book!
