I was really looking forward to this book. I have an interest in what happens to us when we die and also like to read humorous stories about such. This book was neither. It didn't go into detail about the preparation of the body after death or any funny stories, more so it was written in a gentle poignant manner so as not to upset the reader. It felt more like an older woman's gentle loving way of discussing what happens to the living after people pass on. I didn't like this book at all. It was too tame, too protected, too safe, and too gentle for me. Not interesting at all. I felt more like this was written by an elederly Sunday school teacher then a mortician and embalmer. This one bored me.
