Changes

I would recommend this to widows but also to anyone who enjoys reading memoirs about significant life events. Brownlee stresses that you never know how you'll react to something until it actually happens to you. She is refreshingly forthcoming about the mistakes she made along the way and the fact that grief is an ongoing and unpredictable process. You won't be able to read this without feeling more compassion for people who have to deal with loss on a daily basis.

Further reading suggestion: In fiction, try [[The Valentine's Card by Juliet Ashton]]; for non-fiction, we recommend [[Tips From Widows by Jan Robinson]].
