I haven’t had time to get into The Seven Daughters of Dupree. Maybe I will before the end of the year.

Mortuary Science? What prompted your interest?

It’s definitely a page turner and great piece of historical fiction.

Honestly, becoming a mother. To give life is to also invite death, in many forms.

It’s something that’s not talked about enough. I find endings beautiful.

I've been looking forward to reading The Seven Daughters of Dupree. Mortuary science, you say? Do tell us more. Nail game poppin'.

It’s really good! The last three chapters are fantastic.

I read “smoke gets in your eye” by Caitlin Doughty and enjoyed it. I bought “Stiff: The curious life of cadavers” by Mary Roach on Wednesday and can’t wait to get into it.

Death is such a taboo topic in American society so I’m going a self study of sorts.
