The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion

emotional reflective sad slow-paced

3.0

My first intro to Joan Didion. Some nuggets of wisdom about grief in here. For me it was not a life changing book. It's a relic of its time and reflects a lot of class privilege (flying from LA to Sac for dinner! Not selling a house in Malibu before buying another one in New York! Going to Hawaii to "think"!)
