All the Living and the Dead

by Hayley Campbell, book 55 of 2022

I found this book almost impossible to put down despite its dark and graphic content. Campbell does a wonderful job taking the reader behind the scenes with folks in a variety of death related industries. From a crime scene cleaner to a death doula, Campbell’s writing treats every situation with honesty and care. Ultimately, I found this to be a hopeful book, and I’d recommend this investigative work to those who are interested and brave enough to uncover the secrets of what happens to us after we die. 

Thank you to the publisher, author and NetGalley for this ALC!
