Grieving Through Reading

Grieving Through Reading In-Person

We all grieve losses in our life – whether it be from a death, illness divorce, loss of a job, or any kind of change that robs us of what our life used to be like. This book group will feature books on death and loss as well as discussions on how we can deal with these challenges and move ahead in our lives to a new normal. It is an opportunity to work through your grief in an untraditional way. The group is facilitated by BPL staff member and hospice volunteer, Holly Williams, and BPL Community Resource Navigator, Olivia Scott.

January: Nothing to Fear: Demystifying Death to Live More Fully by Julie McFadden

February: The Grieving Brain: The Surprising Science of How We Learn from Love and Loss by Mary-Frances O’Connor
