Making Piece by Beth Howard

Beth Howard shares her grief over the death of her husband Marcus, and how pie helps her come to peace with it.   She tells her story in an honest and candid manner.  Those who have suffered a loss as she has will no doubt identify with her pain, but will also experience hope of healing. 

Because she has lived an interesting and varied life, her book is easy to read.  Despite the difficult topic, she keeps the reader captivated.  Her writing style reminded me a bit of Ann LaMott—full of personality.  After completing the book I felt as if I knew Beth.  Read this book if you are dealing with grief in your own life or simply to appreciate another person’s life story.  Serve yourself a warm wedge of pie and dig in!  I am grateful to the publisher for the copy of the book and this is my honest opinion.
