It's no secret that I love to read.
It's why I'm always eager to do book reviews.
I was given the opportunity to read a book called Saturday Night Widows by Becky Aikman.
It tells the story of Becky, who loses her husband when she's only in her 40s. She's kicked out of a widow's support group (for upsetting the older widows who feel that since she's in her 40s, Becky can easily move on with her life) and decides to start her own with 5 other women. They are all dealing with heartbreak and come together to heal once a month for a year. All the women are figuring out ways to cope with their status of being a widow.
This book made me laugh and cry and laugh again. I enjoyed reading about how these women overcame their sadness and grief. It was wonderful to read about women who are there to HELP and not backstab or hurt one another (clearly I watch too many episodes of Real Housewives..)
I highly recommend this book.
