From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death by Caitlin Doughty

3.0

I'm fascinated by this subject, but ultimately Caitlin Doughty's works don't click with me, not sure why. If I had to put forth a real complaint it's that the author often makes it seem like other cultures do death...better? Which is an interesting take but this book doesn't really go into much sociological depth so it can feel like Doughty puts forth this bias with no backing. Really though, that's a minor thing and only minorly contributes to my tepid reaction while reading this book. It just didn't work that well for me, it was fine.
