So funny and fascinating! I love Caitlin’s YouTube channel and I’ve been watching her for years at this point. This book was a work of art in non fiction. Bits and pieces of history, memoir, memories and stories with huge dose of humour and everything from the above is about death - I’M IN LOVE!
Truly deserved five stars from me. Highly recommend!

I like the author's message about reframing the way we think about death (death anxiety and denial of mortality). I liked learning about the death industry and about the different historical and cultural practices surrounding death. 

I really had to force myself to get as far as I did in this book because I didn't enjoy learning about her personal experiences. Some of her personal experiences felt random and unnecessary, and almost a bit too perky. It adds her unique perspective, but I didn't get the point. Was there a point?
