I remember searching out memoirs on grief after a family member passed away years ago, it brought me so much comfort to feel less alone and help process my feelings. There are another 2 that come to mind, if you are at all interested: - Wave: A Memoir by Sonali Deraniyagala - Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
