I love Caitlin Doughty. If she writes it I'll read it.  This book is funny, interesting and definitely morbid. If that's your style definitely give this a read.

Everyone in the 99% should read this (ideally everyone in the 1% would read this but my hope and faith lie with the 99%). This is a very approachable and perspective shifting book. I believe even if you are firm in the "eat the rich" camp this will still shift your thinking and challenge you. It's motivating and a conversation starter whether you agree or not with all of her thoughts and perspectives. Highly recommend this book! I think it would be a great book club book. So many important conversations and thoughts, opinions to be had from this book!

I love Caitlin Doughty. She writes about death and death cultures from around the world. Her books are interesting, informative, morbid, absolutely hilarious and incredibly poetic. She hits it all! If Caitlin Doughy wrote it, I will read it!

Great book. I loved learning the history of a lot of the words we use and how they have been shaped and used to either uplift or belittle someone. This book was so incredibly fun to read, it is both informative and hilarious. It highlights how words have power and empowers women to take back and use our words with intention. Definitely recommend.

I absolutely loved this book! I listened to the audio like everyone recommended and I will say the same. Sci-Fi isn't my typical genre and science isn't really my jam so if you are similar the audio is a must. And even if those are your interests the audio books does a great job. I would suggest double immersion if you want to read the book.
