Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach

5.0

I thought this was just a writing research book for me so that I could better understand the stages of body decomposition. But Mary Roach wrote this, so I loved it because of its charm, humour, and heart despite the subject matter. Her writing subtly guides us into spiritual thinking about the connection between our bodies and souls as a tool to gauge how we feel about that subject. I really liked this.
