funny informative lighthearted reflective fast-paced

The author included facts and funny quips to make this a book that talks about death in a light-hearted way. It helped me ease some fears and think harder about how I want my corpse treated.

Doughty’s signature wit and humor is condensed for younger(?) readers. Her honesty and frankness is always refreshing but here it definitely seems  less  potent and touching, but definitely because the target reading group is less intense than her previous books intended readership. Satiates curiosity and has great illustrations!

This book answers questions that all of us have probably had about death at some point in our lives. Caitlin Doughty is a mortician and content creator who dedicates her platform to making the world feel more comfortable with death and all that comes with it. I have always struggled with a lot of these concepts so reading this was outside of my comfort zone, but I found it extremely informative, accessible and even funny. The only reason why i didn't give it quite 5 stars is just because I would've liked some chapters to have more information.

Many amazing and interesting questions about death answered, thanks to kids who asked about them. I never wondered what happens if you die in space, but now I know. The humour and illustrations made this a light read, couldn't recommend enough.

Vastauksia moniin hämmästyttäviin ja kiinnostaviin kuolemaan liittyviin kysymyksiin, kiitos niitä kysyneille lapsille. En ole koskaan miettinyt mitä tapahtuu, jos kuolet avaruudessa, mutta nyt tiedän. Huumori ja kuvitukset tekivät tästä kevyen luettavan, en voinut suositella tarpeeksi!
