I am very sorry for your loss. Something I would recommend (at some point in the next year) is Three Philosophies of Life by Peter Kreeft. While not directly about grief, it addresses, well.. philosophy of life. And I know after the unexpected loss of my niece, that was something I needed to think about.
Please let me know if you find one.
Read anything written by Nietzsche.
What kind of loss?
Parents
Death sorry
Unfortunately, I can only recommend books about loss of a child. ?
John Greene The Fault Is InThe Stars
Best book ever about loss/ grief!!!!
After my Dad died, the book that really helped me was ‘on death and dying’ by dr. Elizabeth kubler ross
My cousin’s dad wrote this
My vote goes to Elizabeth Kubler Ross “On Death and Dying”. I am a social worker, have suffered many losses and she is my hero!!
Mary L. Bryden I’m getting my masters right now in social work too

@Rebecca Outstanding! Enjoy the profession. Try to take the licensing exam while things are fresh in your mind.
I loved When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalinathi
The Still Point of the Turning World is one of the best books I’ve ever read about grief. One of the best books I’ve ever read, period.
