Blue Like the Sky

Jason Brooks

This is a book about family, grief, faith and a million other things. It charts the course that my life took during the last few months of my grandfather's life, and what things went through my mind during that period. I originally wrote these words on my blog as a way of making sense of what was going on around me; when my grandfather died, I turned those words into a book for my family. But this isn't just a book for my family. It is for anyone who has ever lost a loved one. It is for anyone who wants to remember. It is for anyone who wants to know what love looks like in its truest and best form. It is a honest peek into what it means to grieve a loss more powerful than you can imagine - and how to find the strength to continue on.

About the Author

Jason Brooks is a native son of the South, born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia. For the longest time, he wanted to be Lewis Grizzard when he grew up, but then he discovered C.S. Lewis and wanted to be him, too. His two books represent his twin writing passions: non-fiction that brings to light the power of family and faith in everyday life, and detective fiction that shows how light in a dark place is always needed, no mater the challenges. His work has appeared in numerous magazines, including Georgia Magazine, Atlanta Parent, and Collegiate Magazine.
