Good Grief: A Novel by Sara Goodman Confino

Over 3,050 5-Star Reviews!

A hopeful and hilarious novel about widowhood, family friction, and two women learning to move on—one way or another.

1963—Two years after her husband’s death, Barbara Feldman is finally emerging from her cocoon of grief. Not quite a butterfly, but ready to spread her wings. Then her mother-in-law, Ruth, appears on her doorstep with five suitcases and the expectation of a permanent room—mattress requirements included.

Abrasive, opinionated, and well-meaning, Ruth insists she’s there to help with the children. How can Barbara say no to a woman who is both a widow and a grieving mother? But as Ruth’s “visit” stretches from days to weeks to forever, Barbara knows something must change—and fast. Her solution? Introduce Ruth to a few fine gentlemen and marry her off.

Soon enough, Barbara suspects Ruth has the very same idea about her. At least they’ve found common ground: each is determined to help the other move forward…even if their plans unfold in the most unpredictable ways two very different women could imagine.
