Synopsis

All change and loss involves grief. In this difficult season of the coronavirus pandemic, understanding how to grieve—and help others grieve—is more essential than ever.

The Grief Club is Melody Beattie's profoundly personal, powerfully healing book to help listeners through life's most difficult times.

Part memoir, part self-help book, part journalism, The Grief Club is a book of stories bound together by the human experience of loss in its many forms such as death, divorce, drug addiction, and the tumultuous yet tender process of recovery. It's a book you need to listen to and share.

Twenty years ago, Codependent No More established Melody Beattie as a pioneering voice in self-help literature and endeared her to listeners who longed for healthier relationships. Over the years, Melody has invited listeners into her life with several more best-selling books—each punctuated with her trademark candor and intuitive wisdom.

A poignant book covering all aspects of grieving and loss. During this COVID-19 pandemic, I not only grieve the loss of loved ones, but grieve my old way of life and adjusting to the new abnormal.

Goodreads review by Michele on October 24, 2018

One of the best books I've read on grief. This book encounters all forms of grief, not just through the loss of a loved one, yet all these types of grief circle back to the same emotive, change and self-discovery on every level. There are stories of reflection within each chapter that centers on tha......more

Goodreads review by Anna on January 09, 2019

I got this book when I was reading up on grief therapy a lot. And this was by far the least helpful book I read on the subject.
