I hope you all are doing well! Now this book was in my February favorites and I have been dying to review it! So here it is!
This book is called The Death Class:True Story About Life.
Summary: This book is through the eyes of a journalist who goes to a Kean University and follows around a professor named Norma Bowe, who teaches a class about death. Through out the book, you find out the stories about five students, the journalist and the professor. The book is filled with truth, heartache, death, tragedy, and addiction.
My Opinion: This book was incredible! This book really opens your eyes about life and death. Most of the deaths that they talk about in the book are from people who have been killed. This book is a page turner and once you pick it up, you will not want to put it down. I also liked how even though this book was sad, there were happy moments throughout the book and you just cherished them. Also, when the I slowly started learning about everyone stories, it made me realize that you really cannot judge a book by it's cover because you have no idea what a person has gone through. That was something that really stood out to me. The biggest thing that shocked me was when I found out that this was a true story. That there really is a Norma Bowe who teaches a death class at a university. It makes me want to go to that university, just to take her class.
I think everyone should read this book. It is just so honest about life and the tragedies of it. I do not really like books like this because I am more into happy books but I am so glad I read this book because it really opened my eyes on life, death and people. I do not recommend this book to anyone younger than 16. This book has some pretty graphic scenes and this book is for more mature readers.
I really hope you all read this book and please let me know what you think of it! If there is any book you want me to read and review, please let me know because I will be more than happy to! :)
Carpe Diem,
Sophia
