Will My Cat Eat My Eyeballs?: Big Questions from Tiny Mortals about Death by Caitlin Doughty

3.0

This has been my least favorite of Doughty's books...I've really enjoyed her other two books, so was super keen to pick up this one as well. While there were some really interesting facts sprinkled throughout this book, there was something off about the humor. It generally felt like she was trying too hard to make the joke, or come up with the perfect pun, and a lot of the time these attempts fell flat. The amount of these attempts at hilarity were also disproportionate to the rest of the book, multiple jokes and funny "wink-wink" moments were littered on every page and were way too close to the last one to have any real humor. In fact the opposite happened, I started rolling my eyes and generally getting frustrated with the silliness. Even with that said, this was still a fun and interesting read with some really cool historical, medical, and morbid tidbits to keep you curious.
