I listened to this audiobook after hearing a podcast with Jason Rosenthal and Sam Harris, which I found incredibly moving. I found this audiobook equally—if not more—moving, and loved that it was narrated by Rosenthal himself.

Beautiful read

I wanted to read this book because I listened to the Ted Talk given by Jason B Rosenthal at a time when I was searching for some understanding of grief and how to survive it. I wondered if my own pathetic story had any right to be put in the same category as this story. At the same time, there is no more useless exercise than comparing pain, so I stopped, and listened and learned. But, this story is so much more than one of loss, regret and pain, it's a story of hope. It's a story of generosity, of a woman so in tune with herself and the world that she was a giver, who gave something to everyone, not just her husband and family. Google Amy Krouse Rosenthal and discover her for yourself. I was compelled to, after listening to Jason's story. In doing so I found one of her many picture books for children, "I wish you more." Then I found her Ted Talks. One of them, "7 Notes On Life," had a huge impact on me and still influences my thoughts and choices, positively. The story of "The Beckoning of Lovely," is powerful story and the theme through it all is, to make the most of our time here, creating something, which is exactly what Amy did. It is something I've begun to do, inspired by Jason and Amy's story, I'm beginning to create. It's small and it's out of my comfort zone, but the positive energy is empowering.
Jason leaves us with the thought, What will you do with your blank space? It's worth thinking about.
I found the narration easy to listen to and the pauses appropriate and natural.
