Description
In Widow's Might, Kim Knight shares her experience when her husband suddenly and unexpectedly died at fifty-six years old. In one day, Kim went from planning her future with her best friend to planning a funeral, searching for passwords to online accounts, trying to return to normal when things were no longer normal, and finding God in the middle of trauma and grief.
Widow's Might is for young or middle-aged widows and those who love them. The book helps those who've experienced a tragic loss to better understand the confusing and unpredictable path of grief as well as the challenges and promise of new growth.
Learning to embrace a life different from the one you imagined isn't something you're going to master by the end of year one, when your family and friends think you should, or when you hope you might. You can deeply embrace and honor your marriage to your late spouse and still find contentment, happiness, and maybe even love in the days ahead.
Widow's Might will give you the strength and wisdom to discover new life on the other side of death. Look toward what God has in store for you. And—every once in a while—spend the day in your pajamas and eat popcorn for dinner. It's okay.

Although this is a Christian book and mentions church and prayer it might also be relevant to some none believers.
Kim lost her partner Drew and was asked to write a book about it. My partner of 32 years passed away last year and so I felt this book might be interesting to read. Kim gives the story of the sudden death of her partner Dale and how she has recovered, in the main, from the trauma and found the courage to go on and make a new life for herself. Knight shows many if not most of the different aspects of a widows feelings and emotions during the first years after a partners death and then follows each chapter up with a brief question section regarding the chapter to give the reader a chance to respond to what they have just read.
I felt this was a very interesting and valuable read and would recommend it to people in a similar situation.
ARC from NetGalley for an impartial review.
