This book keeps surprising me with myths about grief I have been culturally lead to believe are true. Lots of truth bombs and affirming material, but also a great deal of challenging bits that really ask me to look at what I believe about my experiences with grief and how I’ve chosen to cope. Good stuff.

I have experienced a lot of loss recently. I’m only 19 pages in and I’m finding so much of what I thought of grief is misinformation. The misconception of the 5 Stages was a big eye opener for me, but also quite freeing. To know there aren’t stages allows me to step openly into the flow of my emotions instead of trying to intellectualize and identify the stages. So far an excellent and affirming read.
