To grieve is brutal — to grieve in solitude is unbearable. Anna shines her wise, warm light of honesty and truth into the darkest corners of loss and what is illuminated is a map. A map with many different paths that all lead to the same place —comfort, connection and ultimately, peace. I am so grateful for this book.”

with incredible grace and vulnerability. I wish i had this book long ago when i was in a place of grieving alone. Anna makes you feel like you are walking the path with an old friend, holding your hand along the way. Her writing is compelling, emotional and fiercely honest, and at times very funny.

Loved this easy to read, amazing book! Anna (author) has given me a voice for my feelings....feelings which I didn't know how to understand nor explain, even to myself. This is by far, the best, most candid, book on grieving that I have ever read! It can apply to grief of any loss....I am forever grateful to dear, sweet Anna for sharing her perspective with me. As I read, I thought again & again, "That's it!" Anna really "gets" how I'm feeling...

I finished reading My New Friend Grief by Anna Hodges Oginsky last night. I have many dog eared pages with passages I want to reflect upon. This book is heartfelt and very honest, taking you through the many different stages of grief and healing. I would highly recommend this powerful and uplifting book to anyone, at any point.
