The Year of Magical Thinking

by Joan Didion · 2005

★★★★½ 4.5/5 · ALLO'S PICK
Written after the sudden death of her husband John Gregory Dunne, this is Didion's investigation into grief — precise, self-interrogating, and without false consolation.
Allo's take
The grief book that reads like nothing else. Didion treats her own mind as the subject of study and the result is both cold and devastating.
