I Liked My Life by Abby Fabiaschi
An unusual story about love, life after death and mourning someone whose manner of death seems totally alien to the person you knew. Madeline has dedicated her life to caring for her daughter, sixteen year old Eve, and beloved husband Brady - until she takes a fatal fall from the roof of the library where she volunteers. Eve and Brady have to reconsider everything they thought they knew about her as a result of her suicide, and Madeline wants to help them cope with moving on into life without her, before she lets them go. It is an engrossing story, moving and gently humorous and an enjoyable read.

The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper by Phaedra Patrick

A truly charming tale of Arthur Pepper, who is numbed and shocked after the death of Miriam, his wife and the love of his life. A strict routine gives him the structure to go on, but it is a joyless existence. A surprising find sets him on a journey which will allow him to make further discoveries and discover that his life is not over, that there is life after loss. The plot is clever and this story is well told: a delight to read.
