pickThis was an incredibly interesting, sometimes sad, sometimes even humorous look into working in the mortuary and cremation business. I think the author makes a great point that in many ways our society has become too separated from the realities of death. I appreciate her writing to share more with the rest of us.
I‘ve seen many interesting reviews of this book, but it took a #StudentRecommendation to make me pick it up.

I adored the tagged book. It‘s hard to read because of how horrific some of the abuse is, but she‘s a survivor and it shows in how she tells her story. She led me to The Power of Knitting, which made the list since I had nothing for June for this bracket, too.

pickI thought I‘d reviewed this 😔 I finished multiple books at a time and was trying to review them all and forgot some along the way, I guess. This one is a hard one to review which might be a reason as well. But Columbine was a really interesting and gripping read, but a heartbreaking one. It still left me wondering and still wanting answers. I can only imagine what the parents and those who lost loved ones feel.

pickI thought I had already reviewed this one here but alas I have not 😬 so here I go 😁…I love history. Not all history, mind you, but still lots of certain history. Anyway, this is on the Plantagenets. The rise and fall of them. There was much turmoil within all this family. I believe it was the reason for their downfall. A house divided cannot stand. .Great read, ifyoulikehistory.
