The Sun Still Rises

Shawn Doyle Β· 2014
72/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

Shawn Doyle writes about losing his wife with the kind of earned honesty that only comes from actually living through something this hard, and the practical hourly-to-weekly toolkit gives grieving readers something concrete to hold onto. It is slim and focused on spousal loss specifically, so readers grieving other relationships may find it less directly applicable. For Christian readers navigating bereavement, it is a warm and hope-filled companion.
