A review by jtrogers1992
A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis

5.0

I don’t think I’ve read this since college but was quickly reminded why it is one of the most impactful books I’ve ever read. I think this one ages really well, as much of its wisdom is not discernible when you are in college. I love that we get to see the confident apologist broken down to his core, where pure reason doesn’t get him anywhere and he has to wander through The Valley of grief and realizes there are not shortcuts. The only way is through.

I think I’ll be rereading this every 5-10 years if I can.
