A Mid life crisis for Bud, an obituary writer, lends itself to the most hilarious aftermath and thought provoking discussion about death and how different people handle this definitive part of our lives.

I loved this book! It was witty, but also reflective. The characters were well-drawn, and the story was unique. I loved the NYC setting. For a “funny” book, I found it also deep and sobering at times. LOVED.
