Marisa Renee Lee reveals that healing does not mean moving on after losing a loved oneâhealing means learning to acknowledge and create space for your grief. It is about learning to love the one you lost with the same depth, passion, joy, and commitment you did when they were alive, perhaps even more. She guides you through the pain of griefâwhether you've lost the person recently or long ago--and shows you what it looks like to honor your loss on your unique terms, and debunks the idea of a grief stages or timelines. Grief is Love is about making space for the transformation that a significant loss requires.

A blend of memoir, advice, and research...an anti-blueprint, laying out her argument that those grieving must do so without shame, on their own timelines and in their own ways.

With calm, lucid prose, the author gently instructs readers on how to navigate their own experiences by highlighting a series of integral elements to surviving loss.
