“It took me 3 months to order this book, and then another 3 to read it.. Words won’t do justice how hard this book was for me to read in the first few chapters, but also how it challenged and helped me heal. 1 in 4 or whatever the statistic is, this book makes you feel like you’re surrounded by 100 other women struggling through a grief that usually remains silent.”
