A Grief Observed by C.S. Lewis

4.0

I have had this as "to-read" for years and finally listened to it on audio book while, ironically, walking to, through, and from a graveyard (no, that was not planned-I was just looking for a book to listen to while I went to get inspiration for a story!). I wasn't sure what to expect, since it was about mourning someone close to you, but I found it surprisingly applicable to life at large. I appreciate the raw wonderings of C.S. Lewis as he grieved, and the thought patterns. I felt like many of the philosophical discussions were useful both inside and outside of mourning, and am truly glad I read it.
