I’ve been following Caitlyn Doughty for years and I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve read by her so far, this is no exception. She explores death and funeral practices in various places around the world with respect, insight, and her signature humor. Fans of Doughty’s YouTube series Ask A Mortician will see her distinctive voice seeping through the pages. However, this book might not be suitable for the squeamish, death is on every page and discussed matter of factly through the death positivity lens.
