Author Lesley Crewe shows us that humour is a great coping mechanism for stressful situations.

I love that Margo has the ability to shift perspective and distance herself from what has the potential to paralyze her with anxiety and helplessness. She’s not only learning to live alone for the first time but she’s dodging well-meaning comments and the domino affects of the death of a family member.

I’d love to incorporate a little of Margo’s cognitive restructuring so that I can redefine and reappraise stressful situations more positively and more humourously.

I was once told that humour was the shock absorber of life. It certainly has enabled Margo to take the blows.

Allow Crewe to transport you to rural Cape Breton to learn how a group of amazing women deal with life’s ‘little’ stresses.

I was gifted this copy by Nimbus Publishing and NetGalley and was under no obligation to provide a review.

Dealing with a semi recent unexpected loss you think you know what to expect, but you don’t even come close. I am so looking forward to sharing my thoughts and full review on this book. I hope it helps others widows and people that are greiving. .
