Reviews

"After I die, put my skeleton in a chair reading this book, with my skull tilted back and my jaw open wide in laughter."
--Jack Handey, author of Deep Thoughts "This is the hilarious and informative grief handbook I didn't know I needed. But hopefully not too soon."
--Judd Apatow, author of Sicker in the Head: More Conversations about Life in Comedy "Griefstrike! is full of genuinely hilarious jokes (my favorite kind of jokes) as well as genuinely poignant feelings (a top five kind of feelings at minimum). Reading it will bring you joy and comfort, and then if you're anything like me, you'll have a slight spiral about whether it's messed up to feel any happiness at a time like this."
--Josh Gondelman, author of Nice Try: Stories of Best Intentions and Mixed Results
