Hardcore Grief Recovery: An Honest Guide to Getting through Grief without the Condolences, Sympathy, and Other BS (F*ck Death; Healing Journal)

This book is the best thing that could’ve happened to me during a most terrible time. Every other book was full of fluff. This one is real. And it has put my feelings into words that I wasn’t even aware of. It hits right on and it understands. It’s better than any person because the book is talking to you. It makes you realize and sort out what you didn’t know you were feeling and that it’s okay. It doesn’t just explain he steps of grief. The person who wrote this understands how those steps are manifesting and addresses that. Not sure if it’s the same for everyone but if you’re mad and sad and hurting. Get this dang book. Thank you Steve Case. You helped me through something I had little hope of getting past.

My wife of 52 years died six weeks ago, and I've been reading lots of books about grief. Hands down, this book has been the most helpful. The author's "tell it like it is" style is both refreshing and helpful. There are illustrations in the book which made me laugh out loud - because they were so honest. I recommend the book to anyone who is grieving.

My boyfriend passed away. I needed to read something that wasn’t so…. Pleasant. It has a little bit of everything and has helped me with cuss words, prayers, ect. It’s like an actual human with emotions wrote this. I even Bought one for his sister.

Definitely helps, even being 4 years out of my grief. Helps with perspective and just life in general. At any stage, u can read this. I like the straight to the point.

Helpful book for dealing with grief.

My stepdad and my best friend died 6 months apart from one another in 2022 and 2023, which frankly destroyed me. I turned to reading for help and I kept running into books that reiterated the tired "it happens for a reason" or "they're in a better place" and it was just insulting. I was so hurt, I was angry and I felt slighted. This book so accurately captured how I felt, synthesized it perfectly in a way that didn't make me feel so alone. It acknowledges the pain at the very beginning and at no point shies away from it. It destroys the typical tropes and provides a real understanding of how you might be feeling, the good, the bad and the ugly, well providing help for the future. It is incredibly grounding and I recommend it to each and every person who is experiencing grief.

This is what I needed. It is honest, true, thought-provoking, witty and so much more. I'm buying more books to give my daughters and others. I feel everyone having a difficult time with their grief journey READ THIS BOOK!!!!! It is a quick and easy read with awesome insight. I would give it 100 stars if I could.
