I found out about this book through a blog that I have been reading by another author. It sounded interesting to me because, like the Clair Bidwell Smith, I lost my parents at a young age.

I am a huge fan of memoirs, and this ranks as one of my favorites--along with The Glass Castle and A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. The writing is raw and powerful, and I love that it's framed through the five stages of grief.

Despite my intention to let it wait, instead of too much turkey, I devoured an advance copy of Claire's book, in stolen moments over half of a family-filled holiday weekend last year. "Edgy" "Gritty" "Poignant" "Brave" "Remarkable" "Raw" "Searingly-honest" "Un-put-downable" These words are sure to be used over and over again in the rave reviews inevitably to come for this astonishing piece of writing.
