New York Times bestselling ghostwriter, Samantha Rose, steps out of the shadows to unravel the mystery surrounding her mother's suicide. What begins as a solitary journey of grief shifts form when her mother magically emerges from the darkness beyond to reconcile her irreversible choice. Raw, deeply revealing, and with resilient humor, Giving Up the Ghost explores the layered complexity of mental health, the love between mothers and daughters and how in the aftermath of inconceivable loss, we can release our inner ghosts and write a new story for ourselves.
"Samantha Rose's mastery of words is a gift-Giving Up the Ghost is an intimate, unfiltered, heart wrenching and, at times, hilarious account of a family story forever changed by suicide. In these confusing and increasingly lonely times for us all, Rose's memoir is a must read for anyone coping with grief and surviving loss." -Eve Rodsky, author of the New York Times bestseller and Reese's Book Club pick, Fair Play
