The fact that there is a book that contains the same grief you had is so inspiring. Thanks for your thoughts.

Losing your better half must be devastating. I am glad the author has moved on and found bliss again.

Maybe writing about the loss was also a form of moving foreward, her intentions are good and the message is positive, I hope it goes through a round of editing. Thanks for your honest review:)

The author is a great model, she still able to share her ideas and griefs despite the hardships she've been through. That's one of the factor to read this book.

It is very painful to lose someone close to you and many people are facing this more due to the pandemic. I am glad to see that there is a self-help book to assist them through the grieving process. I can commend the author for sharing such a deeply personal and hard process with us. Well done on the beautifully written review.

SamaylaM wrote: 25 Aug 2021, 00:18 I think the initiative that the author took to present this book is praiseworthy, especially since it stemmed from her own loss. However, I think I'll pass this one as it looks like the book needs a little more research and editing. Thanks for writing an honest and good review!
I hope that the author considers putting this book in another round of editing. I'm glad you liked my review!

You're right! Others who've been in the same loss will somehow find encouraging words. I'm glad you liked my review! I do appreciate it.

I couldn't agree with you more. It's really disheartening to lose someone you love. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I do appreciate it.

It was presented as a self-help book but it's better if it's presented as a memoir. I appreciate your thoughts. Thanks for dropping by.

Yes, the goal of the author is great but the way she delivers it is somehow not right. Thanks for dropping by. I appreciate your thoughts.
