Everybody wants to die naturally, you know.
But not so soon. Not so soon.

People die. On the descent to JFK airport one day after Tony‘s death, I stared from my airplane window at the closed-pressed houses of the Queens borough: I have this in common with every single one of all the thousands of people down there, living their varied, vivid lives. We might have not one other single thing in common, but we‘ve got this. We will all die. We will all grieve.
A super quick, gripping story.
Hill inherited his father's knack for eerie topics that makes you wonder if just maybe all of this could be real.

This was both delightful and disturbing. I enjoyed a lot of it, but some of the experimentation especially head transplants with monkeys and dogs was truly awful. I wish I‘d been able to skip those sections, but that‘s challenging with an audiobook.
My next read is another re-read. I think I have a pretty good memory of this one, but we'll see! (Don't mind my phone charger in the way of the picture) #BookElevenOf2025
There are a lot of really good things about this novel, including how it made me think about life, mortality, and destiny. It probably would have hit me differently at another point in my life, but between beginning and ending the book, I lost my father to cancer. It really affected how I received the story.
Today I feel spring around the corner- reached 71 today. I feel exhilaration after attending a protest in Hartford, always coffee, the “ Robert Tree” our Magnolia is starting to bloom, kitties, tonight‘s sunset, Litsy friends, the ocean at Banks Street Beach, Harwich Port,Cape Cod,books!, my first porch day with coffee & a book, sisters, hummingbirds yet to visit my garden. #hope #joy #love #gratitude #resist #nature #moodboardcontest #mbc
Such a great author. It always feels weird to enjoy books that are about death, but this is written in such an entertaining and comedic way.
