This is clever, hilarious and resounding.

Doughty picks apart what has culturally become a very taboo subject in the US- death and how we deal with the dead. She opens many closed doors, and makes jokes about all of our mortality; especially the fact that so many of us never truly contemplate it.

Love this. Hard conversations only, please.

StaceGhost I find myself thinking about this book all the time 2y
MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward @StaceGhost there are so many things to think on! Which scenes stick with you the most? 2y
StaceGhost @MerlinTheSlightlyAwkward oof the suicide who stepped in front of the train, the mold she describes on the one woman, and the little girl sent off alone all make the rounds— and her emotional reactions, as a child and an adult. How she describes weeping at the sunset. I love the whole book! So powerful and life affirming (edited) 2y

⭐️⭐️⭐️✨Caitlin Doughty is one of my favorite YouTubers and this book is just as good as her channel. Filled with lots of tidbits about the funeral industry and a few parts actually makes you pause and confront your own mortality. Great read for those of us morbid minded folks out there!

Tera66 I loved this on audio. It really helped me through the grieving process after losing my grandma. 4y
r0sepetals @Tera66 I read this in an attempt to battle some death anxiety that I have, and I felt it to be a real eye opener to the death “process” - a lot less daunting than most of society thinks it is. I‘m glad this book helped you in your own ways. 😌 4y

Prettiest cover ever you say? The cover was a nice bonus, but wanted it anyway after benching Caitlin's YouTube channel ask a mortician. This book is about death cultures around the world.
