Customer Reviews

Huge Help

Although a short read,I was amazed how this book helps one understand the stages of grief. Being a skeptical person I was surprised how the book put deep thoughts into words. I even felt better after reading the first 10 pages! Nothing can ever replace a loved one. But, it is better to understand one's own feelings to be able to enjoy life more. Cheapest and best advice I have ever received.

Highly Recommend This Book

We lost our beloved 24 year-old son recently. Ms. Kolf's words have provided comfort and understanding where none seems possible. I would highly recommend this book to anyone grieving the loss of a loved one.

A Wonderful Book

I've never written a review on a book before, but feel so strongly about this book that I'm taking the time to do so. My father died suddenly last fall and I purchased this book for myself, my mother, sisters and other family members. We all found great comfort in Ms. Kolf's words. It is a book you can pick up and read any chapter at any time. It is an easy read. I found myself reading and re-reading it night after night to get through those most difficult moments. Now, I give this book to others when they suffer a loss, and everyone I've given this to tells me how helpful this book is to them, too, in dealing with their heartache.

Good advice for getting through a tough time!

When my Mother passed away, a friend gave me this book to read. It was such a help to me, I gave it to my brother to read also. Since then, whenever we know someone who losses a loved one, we send them this book. Everyone has always come back and said what a help it was to them. If someone you know needs comfort, send them this book!
