“The Collected Regrets of Clover” by Mikki Brammer
Published by St. Martin’s Press
“The secret to a beautiful death is living a beautiful
life.”
Clover is a Death Doula in New York City, collecting
people’s final words within her notebooks titled “Advice”, “Confessions”, and “Regrets”. While helping others prepare to die and
hearing of their regrets in life, she actually learns a little more about herself,
challenging herself to live a fuller life.
It’s similar to a coming-of-age story but not quite. What I enjoyed most is the way the author
took something scary and sad and turned it into something peaceful and beautiful. This book isn’t for everyone – if you are struggling
with the loss of a loved one, this might not be the right time to read
this. But if you won’t be triggered by
that, I would recommend it.
Finished 12/31/25 – 4/5 stars
