Eve finds her husband Quentin or Q dead by suicide on New Years Eve. She feels guilty since she did not see it coming and was deeply in love with him, her husband of 10 years and companion for 13 years.

This was definitely a tough read/listen. Probably not for people going through a really rough patch of their own. This book is about the paralyzing grief of losing your loved one to suicide.

And here is one thing you should know about me:

I found him."

Not for everyone but an excellent book.… (altro)
