Fascinating
A book about death doesn't sound like a pleasant read, but despite the subject matter this is a fascinating and really informative book.

I knew little about the work of forensic anthropologists and especially had no idea about some of the work detailed in this book, so it was very interesting to read about all of the work, difficulties and benefits involved. It's quite an in depth read and a serious one at that, so it takes a lot of concentration but in the end it's still worth it. I did get a little frustrated at how Blsck referred to death as a "her" - completely understood why, but I would never do this myself and found it odd constantly referring to death as a female and a little bizarre. But aside for this, Black is obviously an expert in her field and her vast knowledgeable and experience is great to read about.

"Coming up to more recent years, I think Meet Joe Black, again, was a tear-jerky chick flick for me that I loved. And the performances…Anthony Hopkins can do no wrong, Brad Pitt‘s become a favorite as well, and Claire Forlani — stop already! All that girl has to do is blink and I’m enraptured. And that was another romance with a sci-fi twist; death coming to take a holiday."
