so-soA Grief Observed is a compilation of longhand writings take from the notebook journals of C.S. Lewis chronicling his thoughts over the loss of his wife. I listened to this book on audio. And it's fairly short, which is probably a good thing, and nearly bailed before the introduction was over. To be honest if it had been any longer than what it was, I still would have bailed on it. The content is interesting, (cont in comments)...
TheHeartlandBookFairy insightful, touching, raw and honest, and you can literally feel his grief. If you are in the early stages of graving a spouse, I'm not sure. I would recommend this book. Beyond that, I found parts of it boring and stuffy and other parts riveting and touching. I listened to this book, I'm audible. So perhaps it was just the narrator that I found difficult to listen to. In the end, I'm glad I did finish the book. But, I'm finding it difficult to give it more than 3.5 stars, just my personal opinion. 8mo
rubyslippersreads Have you seen the movie “Shadowlands”? I think it might be a more interesting version of this. 8mo
