If you think this is going to freak you out, it likely will, but it's not gross just to be gross.musicalpopcorn's review against another edition
3.5
I did find that by about 3/4 through the book, there was less to do with books and more to do with the ethical dilemmas of using bodies for various means after death. I’m not necessarily complaining, as it was still thought provoking….I just found my interest starting to wane a bit.
Overall I’m glad I read this book, although I doubt I will be able to recommend it to many people. It’s a tad niche.
