The year of magical thinking

The year of magical thinking/Joan Didion 227 pg.

Poor Joan had a rough year. Her husband died unexpectedly while her only child was in a coma after suffering a bizarre infection. Didion is a wonderful writer who explains carefully what she went through while grieving or really just suffering from the absence of her husband. that might sound like the same thing but it really isn't. I've had this on my list to read for some time and glad I got to it. No doubt this is what a lot of people go through, not just some simple five stage process. - Christa
