I believe 'A Matter of Death and Life' by Irvin and Marilyn Yalom is also a must read when you struggle with grief and loss. It is a finely tuned cry that needs to be heard by those who are affected. 🖤

Notes on Grief by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is another amazing recommendation, especially for those navigating a sudden loss.

Very helpful 💕

Monika Hesse-Haake kommen wie gerufen 😊

Grieving is important in order to be happy again and most importantly to know that one is able to feel everything and introspect one's life. Thank you for sharing the list.🌻 I'm definitely going to read one of these.
