Good Grief Lolly Winston "It is the entire process of grief from like the weeks immediately after this woman's husband dies until about a year and a half later when she's already moved to a totally different state, tried to start her life anew. There are some really funny parts, which sounds odd. But like the daze, people are in the first months after, she just had this really erratic behavior and like people would wonder why she's out in the dark throwing her plates against the garage and the cops would come. Or, like she would take ten pies to bring the homeless shelter and forget and just leave them in the pack of her car for a week or two, and they were like smelling in there, rolling around. Eventually, she shows up at work in her pajamas and like, she realizes, oh my God, I have to stop and like start again and try to get my life together. But the main characters are very believably drawn and you really get into the head of this girl like even the kinds of dreams she's has in the first months, but then after things are getting better she's actually having dreams of her husband being healthy in the dreams, not always being sick. "Good Grief" by Laurie Winton is a first novel and it's not super, unusual in it's like style or not, not very, like amazing choices of words. But the content is really gripping and I found that it an interesting book. You want to continue. You want to know how she does. So, I'd give it about a, 3.5 or 4 stars."
