    5.0 out of 5 stars Simple and easy to follow - important when grief is taking up the rest of your headspace.
    Reviewed in Australia on 6 July 2022
    This book (I listened to the audiobook version) was very a helpful and practical read, which I came across after unfortunately (and unexpectedly) losing my brother. I have recommended it to many people since.
