Many thanks to NetGalley and Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor | Vintage for gifting me a digital ARC of this memoir by Simon Boas. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4.5 stars!
Simon Boas was diagnosed with terminal throat cancer in his mid-40s. Having lived what he will say is a fortunate and blessed life, having privilege and experience, he shares his death journey with readers. I completely appreciated his blunt, dark humor approach and admire his viewpoints. To me, this is more of a book on how best to live than how to die, as well as how best for the rest of us to deal with those in our circle that are dying. I loved the book analogy about grief, and feel that this book contained so many good reminders about priorities in life.
