Notes on Grief by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.5

This book is a heartbreaking account of how Adichie lost her father during the Coronavirus pandemic. It would be great for anyone who needs to feel heard/seen after losing a loved one. For the same reason, I think it needs a trigger warning for anyone who has recently lost a loved one.

This one is super short, the audiobook being only an hour and a half. Adichie narrates it herself and her accent is so beautiful. I think it feels even more touching and emotional because she is narrating it.

My favorite quote from it is: "I have mourned in the past but only now have I touched grief's core."
