Not my usual read but it was helpful. My mom died last year and if it would've been available then i would've bought copies for my siblings and myself. I still may. I would recommend.

The Only Way Out is Through is a very helpful book about working through the grieving process. Dr. Gail Gross, a renowned psychologist, has all the professional credentials to write this book, but she also is a parent grieving the sudden death of her 24-year-old daughter.

She offers ten practical strategies on working through the stages of grief. I like that at the end of each strategy she provides practical ways to take action in support of the strategy. Melding her professional knowledge with her personal understanding she imparts her wisdom in an easy to understand manner.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Rowman & Littlefield Publishers for allowing me to read a copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review. Opinions expressed here are my own.

I absolutely loved this book. It has some good ideas. Everyone deals with grief differently is what I always away from this. Read it. You won’t be disappointed

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found the separation and explanation of all the different strategies interesting and eye opening for dealing with grief. I also appreciated the inclusion of the perspective of her son. This should definitely be on everyone’s to-read list even if you have not dealt with child loss grief but any grief. This book would be beneficial for not only those dealing with a death grief but the loss of a friendship or other meaningful relationship as well.

This book was not quite what I expected. I anticipated a story format of the loss of the author's child and how she moved through that grief. This book is not in that format, but instead reads very much like a textbook. It makes for more arduous reading, but may be exactly what some are looking for. It was not what I was looking for.

Thanks to NetGalley for a chance to read an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

Certainly an interesting and informative read
It’s like a support/self. Help book for anyone who has sadly lost a child or anyone in death.
How to cope, the feelings that you go through.
Thank you to both NetGalley and Rowman and little fields Publishing for my eARC in exchange for my honest unbiased review
