This is a wonderful book, easy to read and well-written. It should be widely read as the material and advise is valuable to everyone regardless of their present state. The subtitle is “Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy” and that says it all.
A personal, heartfelt story of finding resilience in the face of incredible tragedy. Backed by scientific research and numerous anecdotes of getting through pain- Sheryl and Adam layout how to avoid the three main pitfalls of permanence, personalization, and pervasiveness. I also appreciated the ideas to provide a concrete method of helping instead of asking “what can I do” as well as offering encouragement as well as empathy.
I'm glad I read this book. Otherwise the other 1-star Goodreads reviews wouldn't have been nearly as funny and spot on.
