FBT review:

Discover *Grief and Loss in the Age of AI* by indie author Sera Vale – a powerful, thought‑provoking guide for readers who love boundary‑pushing non‑fiction.

As AI begins to recreate voices, faces and personalities of the dead, this book cuts through the hype to ask: does “digital resurrection” truly help us heal, or quietly complicate grief?

Blending psychology, neuroscience, ethics and real‑world examples, Vale explores how AI grief companions work, why they feel so real, and how to use (or avoid) them safely.

If you’re browsing bestseller lists for your next gripping, conversation‑starting eBook, this timely, accessible read will stay with you long after the last page.
