Don't Walk to Buy Michelle's Book - Run!

I highly recommend this brilliant read of Michelle Miller's book Boys, Booze and Bathroom Floors on dealing with grief in different ways.
I usually do not read a book in one sitting; but I did. This is very easy reading and you can't get though it fast enough.
Reading it made me cry and laugh. Know that you do not have to have shame from sex being a widow. She writes on all the emotions that you do feel and is not ashamed to speak of how she feels. Plus I'm glad she forgives blondes. Buy the book to find out why.
