 This book discusses some gross and morbid science facts. If you are into gross, morbid science facts, this is a fun book. It includes things about animals, nature, and the human body. There is a healthy mixture of just plain weirdness and things that are good to know.

This book was suggested to me by someone, and if I could remember who, I would thank them. I have the Audible version, which lasted me my whole shift at work, so around seven hours. The physical copy is 330ish pages if you prefer that medium. I enjoyed the writing style of this book. It was informative, engaging, and humorous. There were a lot of neat facts that I learned from the book, which I shared with my coworker against her will.

I loved this book. I feel like I'm in a dark/spooky non fiction phase, but this book was so enjoyable, I just raced through it. Very funny and informative. I have seen this author being compared to Mary Roach, however I think she is in a league of her own. 

Erika Engelhaupt takes the reader through all types of icky topics but does so with taste as well as humor.

One Sentence Review: I always appreciate learning new, inappropriate tidbits to (over)share with friends.
