Fascinating book about death rituals around the world. Us Americans have a lot to learn about how to have a healthy relationship with death and dying.

Really enjoyed this book! I wished it could have included more cultures and countries and the ways they celebrate their dead (I realize that would have made this book much longer... but I loved learning about the different cultures!)

I found Caitlin through her youtube channel appearing in my recommended list and I have not stopped watching her previous videos! They are amazing and informative and she makes the history of the people she may talk about or the events she discusses easy to understand and fun.

Surprisingly, I found myself laughing at times through this book, unsurprisingly, I was shocked at times and could become emotional as well.

I cannot wait to read more from her!
