“Margaret Chiavini has a rare gift for turning a difficult topic into something deeply meaningful and even uplifting. It’s Your Party is a powerful reminder to stop waiting and start living with intention, gratitude, and purpose.” — Dan Johnson President, The Danco Group of Companies

“It's Your Party is the book I didn't know I needed. Margaret Chiavini has pulled off something genuinely rare: she's written about death in a way that makes you want to leap out of your chair and start living. With warmth, wit, and disarming honesty, she transforms the daunting task of ‘getting your affairs in order’ into an act of profound self-respect—and self-discovery. This isn't a book about endings. It's a masterclass in not sleepwalking through the middle. Read it, plan the party, and then go live a life worth celebrating.” — Joseph F. Dutra President & CEO, Kimmie Candy

“I have always been struck by Margaret’s infectious joy, attitude of gratitude, and unquenchable thirst for knowledge and new experiences. She’s one of the smartest, most intuitive, and well-loved people I’ve ever had the great fortune of meeting, and I highly value our friendship. Of course, she would have the foresight to gift us with a guide to make the loss of a loved one less chaotic and more meaningful while simultaneously encouraging us to live the lives we dream of—BRAVO!
