INSPIRATION FOR THE ROAD
All of these resources truly helped me on this journey of loss in some way. Not all of the books deal with grief specifically, but they have all aided in healing the huge hole in my heart and soul as well as growing my courage. I love to read and I have many more books on a shelf here or there that are just waiting for me to examine the pages for my own continued healing as well as goodness to pass on to you!
So heading out on this journey, these are the books that I would recommend you choose from to throw in your tote!
