Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Grief Is Grief
Jeanie Phillips · 2024
70/100
👍 Worth It
Jeanie Phillips's central argument — that grief shouldn't be ranked or compared — is simple but it's one that bereaved people genuinely need to hear, and her ability to carry devastating personal losses with grace and humor makes the book feel earned rather than preachy. Very new and untested critically, and it skews toward a faith-oriented readership, but it fills a real gap.
