A lovely read following one woman's journey out of the depths of grief into some semblance of normal. I really enjoyed reading about her experiences in foraging for mushrooms (it's always nice to read about people who are excited about things), and the combine nicely with her own musings on her own grief.
As someone who is actively grieving right now, I found this an incredibly moving book. I had to put it down a few times just because the descriptions of her experiences of grief were just so relatable.
