A raw, honest, and moving glimpse at the world of therapy, from the dual perspectives of a practitioner and a patron. Lori Gottlieb introduces the reader to her line of work through a series of interweaving stories from her patients and from her own life. This book is bursting at the seams with laughter and tears, reflecting faithfully the practice of therapy: finding happiness in a world that seems to fight us for every inch. ~ Reviewed by Digby Baker-Porazinski

This book mentions every aspect of the asexual spectrums, and goes into in-depth detail about all the different sides of the spectrum, and more. I discovered at the age of 17 what asexuality is. As I researched it more, I came to realize I am a part of the 1% population that is asexual. People usually ask me a lot about asexuality and, sometimes, I don’t have exact answers. Or if I do know, I can’t always put it into words or phrases that would be understandable by someone who is not on the spectrum. I wish I had this book available to me years ago when I was just starting to figure all this out. I would highly recommend this book for anyone looking to understand themself or someone they know on the spectrum better. It is also a good resource for students doing any sort of research project on the subject. ~ Reviewed by Jules Wagner

If there is such a thing as a perfect book to read during CoVid19, this is it because we are all, in different ways, facing failures. A lot of us have lost jobs, incomes, plans for the future. Some of us have lost even more. And through this we've all been forced to re-assess who we are, what's important to us, how we are going to live our lives, and what's the plan now that the board has to be wiped clean.
Clack addresses the things that make us anxious: our sense of worth being tied to our economics, at a time when unemployment is at a record high; how ageing and our imminent deaths are fears we avoiding confronting in a time when age is a major factor in whether or not an infection is deadly, and where death tolls rise around us; how we forget that we are connected to one another, and that the universe is beyond our control, as we try to contain a viral pandemic by staying apart.
Written in January of this year, there's no way Clack could have known how important her work would be in this time. But it's critical to understand how to get through loss and failure, how to understand our brief place in the chaos of the world, and learn that we can move on and forward into an unknown future. ~ Reviewed by Katelynne Shimkus

Perhaps dying is not solely about pain, frailty, and limitations. Perhaps the dying experience dreams akin to realistic, life-affirming visions offering reconciliation and harmony. Kerr's interactions with thousands of hospice patients have convinced him that, at the end, what we encounter is undying love. ~ Reviewed by Mike Hare
